Technology is growing everyday and I will definitely use it in my classroom. I will certainly be using it to my advantage as an educator. Google applications will be a tremendous tool in the classroom. There are so many things Google can do in the classroom. It's a free application that can used anywhere not only in the classroom but at home and the library. Google has google doc, presentation, spreadsheets and other programs that can be used. Not only will I use Google but my students will use it as well. Google will certainly bring presentation to life.
Blogging will be another aspect I will be using in my classroom. Having my students blog about various assignments and topics. What a great experience to share not only with classroom but the entire world. This will provide excellent feedback to my students. They will be able to improve on their skills with critic given from various people of the world.
I will certainly be introducing my students to podcast. They will become radio announcer without ever leaving the classroom.What great tool to use. This will make for an excellent group assignment. Not only with class, but with other students around the world. Learning about diversity without ever leaving the classroom.
Technology will provide my students to go places they can imagine. They will be able to go to China, India, and Egypt without stepping a foot out of the U.S. This will provide them with a life experience and as well as the enjoyment of learning.
Technology will always be changing. Therefore, it will be my job to always stay a step ahead of my students. If not they will certainly become the teacher and will be the student. And that will be OK with me for a very limited time only.
About me.............
Hello, My name is Timeka Holloway. I am currently returning to school to receive my degree in Elementary Education. My anticpate date of graduation is Fall 11. Education is the key to success. I am becoming an educator because I want to make a difference in a child’s life. I want kids to understand that education is the key to becoming anything you want. Strive to be best in all that you do. If I can just effect one child’s life, that would be tremendous contribution to the world. Students should never perceive falling as an option. They should be motivated to succeed in everything that’s presented before them. Negative conation should be left outside the classroom. Willingness to continue to learn is an excellent pathway to success. Let the light within shine bright and never fade away. Be willing to go that extra mile to help yourself and your fellow classmate.
