Hello!
Yesterday was the first class for Nature of Schools and I am so happy that I have learned so much already! I am definitely not the best with technology and I learned about all these new websites (and setting up a blog!) and how to use them. Wiziq was completely new for me and I am not all too good at using a webcam so I was somewhat intimidated and overwhelmed by all of it at first. I think that Dr. Smirnova will be great at helping me overcome this feeling as well as the other students in the class who seemed eager to help one another. I am definitely excited to learn more about these tools and the other ones we will use for this class so that I will become more comfortable with using technology. And hopefully, learn about how to incorporate it into my classroom someday.
I am looking forward to learning a lot over the next few weeks!
Sarah, take it from me, I know that new technology can be overwhelming and even scary at times. It is unfortunate that this class is only two weeks long, Dr. Smirnova has taught me so much in the two prior classes I had taken with her, and I know that I will be a better teacher because of her. You have learned so much in two weeks I am sure and if you have the opportunity you should try to take her during a regular semester if you want to know more about technology. She is amazing, and at the end of every class with her you reflect back and see just how much she was able to teach you in so little time! Oh and of course if you need help with anything, I am here!
