My EDM 310 Blog Assignments are Now Complete

Classmates, were done with the semester!! I hope everyone had as good a time in class as I did! We were able to learn about one another through our google/ powerpoint assignment about the third week of class which was fun. I hope to see some of you guys in some of my other classes in the future. MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Final Blog Post

I had a great time this semester in our EDM 310: Microcomputing Systems in Education class. I learned a lot about technology in the classroom and how teachers can use technology to enhance students learning. I learned about blogs, podcasts, itunes, ACCESS labs, and much more. I think I enjoyed writing blogs the most. It was a change of pace from the normal assignments we usually have to do in our education classes. Plus we were able to see other students in our class blogs and see their opinion and perspective on assignments. The podcast we did was a lot of fun as well. Me and Jill had fun preparing it. We were a little nervous at first when we did ours but as we went on with it, it became easier and more natural. I also enjoyed the powerpoint/ google presentation we did I think the third week of class. It was fun and interesting to learn about everyone in the class and how diverse our classroom was!

I can't think of anything that I haven't learned in this class that I would have liked to learn. I think I feel this way because I was introduced to many new things in this class. I think it may have been nice to have another physical education major student in the class however. In some assignments, I had to become creative because most students were elementary or secondary education majors and the assignments were designed for them. But it challenged me a little to become creative and I enjoyed it.
