What:
This past weeks in class have been extreemely stressful, how will I ever be a teacher a good teacher if I'm already stressed. Somehow I find this new assignment (digital story) very exciting! I'm learning that if I as a teacher can have fun with the assignment most likely my students will as well. While with the digital story your not there you get this sense of being in the story, you are experiencing exactly what is going on. While we watched the digital story it was very touching and emotional to see what some people have gone through in past generations. I think it is important that students can understand this as well. In our other classes this week we have been focusing a lot on field assignments and key things to do. I'm very nervous but I'm excited!!! Blah, we also did a Psychology Exam, wow that was amazing!!! I uh am glad I did well on the other exams.
So What:
I'm learning how to develop a digital sotry so I can basically keep up with my students. The only way to have studnets learn it seems is through technology. I find that if it's anythign to do with the computer it will excite them. I feel like this digital story can be a great way to share history lessons as well as many others. This techonology class is not only helping with my other courses right now but actually in my day to day life. I have recently been playing around with many websites and finding some cool ways to decorate, teach and learn. Basically I love technology!
Now what:
For my future studnets techonolgy I figure will be their life in a sense, I imagine a lot of future assignments will revolve around that as well as other aspects in life such as driving, cooking, job employment etc. I feel as though I am going to be a great teacher...as long as I don't get to over whelmed ha ha. By taking this media course it truly has opened up my eyes to technology and has helped me be computer literate, internet literate and hopefully teacher literate. I will have my future students hopefully create there own digital story with a twist...they will be the characters they will make up the story. We can take pictures in class and they in turn will in a sense teach me about a topic say how a tornado comes about. I think by using multiple methods of teaching it will help students to stay engaged.
