My Ah's

   I had many different Ah moments throughout the semester BUT I think the one that stood out the most was learning to do a podcast. I have always thought that "hearing" something makes a student retain it more and it makes us feel more connected to the subject; that is what listening to podcast did for me, they made me want to learn the content more and feel more connected to it! I loved creating a podcast of my own, it was a challenge to get use to the software but once I got the hang of it, I saw the endless possibilities related to using them.
    As for how I will change as a result of this class and the technology applications we have been asked to used, I will be implementing them into my daily life, as well as using them in the classroom when I go back to teach WITHOUT fear of not knowing what I'm doing!!!
  As I stated above the biggest impact from this semester on me is that I have no fear now related to the new technology and the applications that go along with it. Honestly, I'm excited to explore them more and take my own time to explore them more than what I have been doing during the semester.
 Blogging for me came easy, I LOVE to write and to put my thoughts on "paper" So, will I continue to use the blog, YES I believe I will. I think its a very helpful tool to reflect back on things and theories I have had in the past.
 Thanks for an amazing semester Dr. W! I look forward to any other classes I have with you.
