ILP "Design"- Prezi

For my second ILP project I created a Prezi. The Prezi was on a kindergarten standard, standard SS.K.E.1.1 which was about different jobs people do and the tools and equipment they need to do their job. I have never created a presentation using Prezi before, so this site was totally new to me! I did a very simple presentation because it is directed for the viewing by Kindergarteners. I really enjoyed using Prezi, it was quick, easy and it really made a nice presentation. I will definitely be using Prezi again in the future.

Post 10- LAST ONE WOO HOO!!

I will definitely use data collection tools such as Survey monkey and Edmodo. These were super useful websites that we used throughout the semester to get data collected easily and quickly. Survey Monkey was great, I used it in high school and it was always super successful in getting answers quickly. Edmodo is a great tool when you need students answers only because only your class with your group code can see the survey. Survey monkey is nice if you needed either student OR parent responses. A link can be sent out and easily emailed or posted through an online website; Edmodo, Blackboard, etc.

Topics I found most interesting revolved a lot around the creating a website project. First we all had to post a picture of another teachers website we found which was super cool to see all the different ways to create a website. Another topic I found super interesting is when we had to do a Web 2.0 tool and post the link on our blog. And lastly I thought the powerpoint interaction assignment was super awesome too. To be able to see all the different things my classmates created and then posted on their blog for us all to see. I thought all these 3 topics were super cool because it allowed me to see what kind of teacher everyone is going to be one day. It also allowed me to watch all my classmates grow; with technology, as people and also through our future professional career.

The next thing I would like to learn technology related is Blackboard. I'd like to learn Blackboard because being an FSU student I literally LIVE through Blackboard. I couldn't survive college without it, and it perfectly puts everything in one place. Organized by class and everything you will need for the semester is on this page. I think as a teacher I would LOVE to know how to make a Blackboard and make it useful for my class. I really enjoy having it as a student, so when I'm a teacher I want my students to see how important it was to me when I was a student and why it should be important to them in the long run.

I will achieve my future technology goals by always trying. I will learn to have patience when it comes to technology and just learn to accept that not everything will be easy and I will always have to try. To achieve it I will lookup Youtube videos when I need to know step-by-step how to do something technology wise. Or look it up and hopefully find it on teacher blogs, on possibly on Pinterest. I will also work to find stuff out through my colleagues and past classmates (all of you) and also through myself working hard to achieve my technology goals!

I really enjoyed having class with all of you, I hope you end up being a great teacher who uses technology perfectly in your classroom! :)
