Blog posting (your blog): Post some personal reflections on your experience in this course thus far (i.e. what have you found useful? challenging? hopes for the remainder of the semester? suggestions for the instructor?)

This summer session of MD 400 is a full semester course thrown into 4 weeks.  We are covering a variety of topics in a short time and this makes for a lot of work.  We have learned some good tools like photo story, blogging and web design.  All of these tools will be useful to the students in the upcoming year. Going forward I would like to learn more about free cloud based applications that I can use in my classroom.  I would like to get more experience with prezi, google docs, evernote and other free applications that would benefit my students.  I would also like to learn more about using twitter, xtranormal and polling devices.

  1. In this class I have found many useful items for my classroom. I like how we are using web technologies to enhance instruction. Some of the items that we used were blogger, picnik, inspiration and wikis. All of these items are great tools for any teacher to use. I would like to learn more about cloud technologies but I know that this is tough given our limited time. This course has also been a great deal of work because we are cramming an entire semester into 4 weeks.
