Part 1: Reflect on your process of building your website in terms of design, putting content and what you can now do… Part 2: How can you take what you’ve learned from this master’s program out into the world and into your classroom immediately? Part 3: Finally, how do you plan to use what you’ve learning from this program in the future? Part 1: Well folks, it’s Monday morning of my Spring Break and I’m sitting in my classroom at my desk working furiously and feverishly on Capstone pages, blogs, videos, storyboards, infographics, posters, blog responses, video scripts, reading, references, how-tos, standards, and iCARe document checklists all while fighting off strep throat and trying to manage my three kids via text at home while they’re supposed to be working together to get the pig pens ready for 7 pigs that come next week...I need a break from my spring break!!! I will say that I’ve learned so much in this process, I just wish we would’ve started building our Capstone pages from the very first day of 792...having those extra few weeks would be very helpful. I’m currently done with 4 pages, almost done with 3 more, but there are several that I haven’t even started yet. The pages that I’m most nervous about are “Learn More” and “Design” as they’re the meat of my project and I want them to be informative and of high quality when they’re complete. They also seem very similar to each other, so that makes me nervous. Part 2: I’m not the vocal kind of teacher that is comfortable talking and sharing stuff with my whole staff, but I have to say I’ve really enjoyed bringing many of the tech things I’ve learned in the last year to my PLC and my department...it’s really cool walking by other math classrooms during my prep and looking in the windows and seeing teachers participating in tech or activities that I told them about. That’s a good feeling. Part 3: At this current time, I have two plans for the future with some of the apps that I’ve explored. With Kahoot! I want to do two things...1.) I want my students to get more proficient at making Kahoot! Quizzes themselves, in fact, when we get back from spring break I’m going to assign groups topics from the entire year, to make Kahoot! Quizzes to start studying for our Spring Final. 2.) There is a new feature on Kahoot! where I can record their scores. I want to start doing this to hold my students more accountable, so far, all of our Kahoots! have been for fun this year, and some students have started to not take them seriously.
