My hope is to be a world history teacher for high
school. There are so many amazing and
fascinating websites pertaining to world history that printing articles or
pages would be impossible! Data collecting tools would be a perfect way to
provide extra reading to my students that I find interesting or that goes along
with our lessons. I could also use some questions from specified extra readings
as extra credit on tests or quizzes. I think that would be a cool way of
incorporating a bit more fun facts into an otherwise pretty strait forward
curriculum.
When going through my classmate’s blogs, I really like
seeing the screenshots of their projects. It is really fun to see if we chose
to do a topic similar or different and see why they decided to research what
they did. Its also interesting to see everyone else’s comments on the
technology we have gone over in class because even though we read the same book
and sit through the same class, each person takes away a unique thought or
outlook.
As I continue to go through my journey of becoming a
teacher, I want to really solidify the skills I have acquired this past
semester. Hopefully, I can work more on using the available features in
Microsoft to make my work more interesting. For new technology, I just want to continue
exposing myself to what is coming out and learning how to use the technology
well and effectively. I know that YouTube usually has some very helpful
tutorials so watching how to use/incorporate certain technologies in the
classroom will probably be my go-to learning device.
