thing #23

I have truly enjoyed the journey through 23 things and I am looking forward to using them in my teaching this next school year. Hopefully, I will be able to continue my learning with new "things" in the future.

What were your favorite discoveries or exercies on this learning journey?
I really enjoyed searching You Tube for Math videos. I found so many that would be great to use in class. The most challenging and fun thing was creating my own video with music. Although it took some time, I know I will do this again. I also enjoyed the text and image creators. I will use these tools again to create comic strips, puzzles, etc.

How has this program assisted or affected your lifelong learning goals?
It has inspired me to learn more about Web 2.0 and to use what I have learned this summer. I can't wait to show fellow teachers and students the great features of 2.0.

Were there any take-aways or unexpected outcomes from this program that surprised you?
Before I started this program I looked at other teacher's blogs to see what I was getting into. I wasn't sure that I had the technology experience to complete the program but I am pleasantly
surprised that with just a little help I could do all 23 things.

What could we do to improve upon this program's format or concept?
I really liked the format of this program. Each step of the way I was provided with great information and examples and I really appreciated the fact that I could work at my own pace and at a time in the day that was convenient for me.

If we offered another discovery program like this in the future would you participate?
I most definitely would participate! I think there is a part two to this program that I hope to tackle next summer.

How would you describe your learning experience in one word or one sentence, so we could use your words to promote 23 things learning experience.

A challenging and rewarding journey through 23 new things.
