Lessons+Learned

Lessons Learned Being a technology major man would think that the learning in this class would be eclipsed by my previous experience. This was not so. This class was very useful to anyone with any level of technology knowledge. The things that one can learn in this class are not theoretical knowledge rather it is real time knowledge. The skills you learn in this class are directly applicable to life, right now. They systems, tools and applications are not always easy to use, that is why you have a great professor as a mentor and teacher. One of the most valuable things I learned in this class was not one specific tool or system; it was that abundance of tools there are to use. In this class I was introduced to web 2.0 tools. There are so many tools that one can use for free! I had no idea there were that many free applications just waiting to be utilized. I am excited for when I do get a teaching job I will be able to share these tools with my peers and help them integrated exciting technology into their classrooms. The sheer abundance of tools and their ease of use are the two main things that I took away from the course. There are other lessons learned and skills gained but those two are two that will directly impact my life right now.
