What were your favorite discoveries or exercises on this learning journey?
I liked making the video on Zoho. I think that this was the easiest thing that I did for the 23 Things. It was fun to play around with the different back grounds, photos and music choices. This is a great way to see the children's personalities in their work.
How has this program affected your lifelong learning goals?
I have learned so many tihngs I will be able to use for many years. It has encouraged me to look outside the box and be open to new things.
Were there any take-a-ways or unexpected outcomes from this program that surprised you?
I think that I have grown as a person throughout this program. This was a very lengthy assignment that required a lot of attention. I let myself get behind an had to play catch up. So, I learned that you cannot be a procratinator all your life because it will eventually catch up with you. I also learned to be more open mined and acceptable of new things. Live is ever changing so I need to evolve with it.
What could we do diiferently to improve upon the program's format or concept?
I would like to have smaller segments due at random times throughout the program. Versus just two major turn ins. I think that It would have helped to keep me more on track and accountable for my work throughout the entire program.
How will what you have learned influence your practice as a teacher?
I think that it will help me to be better prepared to help my students leran in a nontraditional way. I do not like for students to be stuck in a desk all day and bored. I think that they need opportunities to work their brains and theri bodies. Their are so my things that you can do with computers that will get the children up and moving.
