Tool11

1. What are your favorite tools you now have in your personal technology toolbox?

Briefly describe a particular activity that you will plan for your students using at least one of these new tools.  I like using the IPad or mac book; have the students work in groups, submit data as they are working, and it is displayed on the active board immediately.  The teacher is sure everyone is participating and other groups can get ideas from other groups. 

2. How have you transformed your thinking about the learning that will take place in your classroom?
How has your vision for your classroom changed? Are you going to need to make any changes to your classroom to accommodate the 21st Century learner?  I have been receptive to the idea of a technology based classroom and have seen first-hand the power of capturing students who are not engaged in lessons that do not utilize technology.  In science we have been utilizing the processes and the tools but we will continue to find new websites for student exploration and new creative methods to use that technology.    
3. Were there any unexpected outcomes from this program that surprised you?
There were not any unexpected outcomes from this program.
