I am a young man with a
old mentality. With all honesty, I found this course to be very challenging but
useful to me within my career in the future. reason being I am not like most
young adults my age. I dont get in front of a computer for hours
a day. I dont check emails daily. I rather write and mail things or talk
to the teacher in person at that present time. That way I know when I am miss
information or receive something need. A lot of things I learning from
this class, I know can help me. such as, knowing the law, when it comes down to
copyright. IT IS A LAW. That me and others for sure dont see it as such.
No one is perfect in all they do. So its easy for people to find a little help
on the web. but if using someone else thoughts or work to created your own.
GIVE THEM CREDIT!

here is a brief summary of
my semester in this course. to began with, become a 21st century teacher is to
want to be and effective leader in our educational system for our students.They
must ensure that instructional needs, greatness of teachers, and the ultimate
needs of students are considered. As beginning a 21st century teacher have to
understand that we as a country is coming to a time where there is no longer
open book in the classroom. technology is the key. so its a must that we think
about the outcome in the classroom and the results from the students to be
successful. which bring me to another chapter 8 that stood out to me, because
its a home run when talking about the generation today . Communicating and
collaborating with social media, has become very popular in our economy.
There are a host of different ways now to communicate with our media in the
educational system. types that we well common use such as text message, email,
discussion broads, websites, and even blogs. there are many more but theses are
some common ones that are on top. social media is made up to connect with each
other through web without actually being physically present. It helps people
share photos and new information about personal life issues that might be be
going one within and individuals life. therefore the media keeps everyone
informed and created a strong campus, community, and city that stick close
together. while we see social media has advance through out the years
dramatically, whose is to tell if its good or bad for our society. it plays a
big part because thats all our children seem to know verse my generation with broad games
and playing cards.
Another topic was chapter 10. chapter its disuses the success throughout technology with all students. Teachers can use technology to create universally designed
classrooms by utilizing varying technologies to apply to
lessons. Teachers can have multiple technology stations that each
pertain to the ways that students learn in their unique way.
For and example Calculators have become an
indispensable tool for utilization in the classroom setting. All
students must be proficient in the functions of varying types of calculators
throughout their academic careers. From your basic large button
calculator to the most complicated of graphing and scientific calculators,
students must be able to utilize these tools to assist in their
success. Technology has helped people with disabilities gain greater
independence and integration in our society. Speech recognition systems,
electronic communications, personal computers, robots, and artificial
intelligence are transforming people's lives. The movement toward technology in
our generation has its use of lighter materials, and higher-capacity
information processing devices present even greater opportunities for this
population in the future. As schools move to mainstream and provide full
inclusion environments for persons with disabilities, it is important that
teachers are aware of possibilities with advance technology. Chapter 6
began by describing the important technologies for managing digital content,
including social bookmarking and cloud computing. All these section deals with
how we use technology to teach students through technology. The next
section talked about organizing electronic resources to address curriculum
standards. This section just talks about how to show you how to gather a
collection of web resources, organized in a way that allows easy access for
teaching. Another section discussed the use of WebQuests, virtual field
trips and videoconferencing as instructional technologies. Which are all three
of the same but have different objectives. A webquest is online and is inquire
by the student that are designed and guided by the teacher. which in person i
had a lot of fun doing. even tho I am not good at technology that
well, webquest was
fun putting together from scratch making some
by brainstorming new ideas that you think no one would
come up with.

There were many more great
lesson thought through out this course, but the lesson outcome
was five things, and i believe all those outcomes where met. Communication:
To communicate effectively using standard English. Critical Thinking: To
demonstrate skills necessary for analysis, synthesis, and evaluation.
Technology/Information Management : To demonstrate the skills and use the technology necessary to collect, verify, document, and organize information from a variety of sources.Global Socio-‐‐cultural Responsibility: To identify, describe, and apply responsibilities, core civic beliefs, and values present in a diverse society. and lastly Scientific and Quantitative Reasoning: To identify and apply mathematical and scientific principles and methods. All theses concepts was thought very well and can be use to better myself as a teacher. this class showed me not only what it is to use technology, but how to use it the proper way. how to make it fun and entertaining, how to apply it to and everyday base of living life. I really enjoyed this class this semester and look for to using some if not more of these techniques in the future.
