So where will I go from here. To be honest, I am hoping to take a break this summer, but knowing me, I will be taking another technology course. I would like to teach on the community college level some day so I will need at least 18 technology credits. I am not sure if this counts for 8 or not??
To explain what I learned from Capstone would take more than a few paragraphs. I can say Katie sure stretched me in Capstone I and she also assured us that Capstone II would not be as difficult which were both true statements. I always wanted to use bookmarks such as PortaPortal; however, I never had a chance to set them up before. Now I have it set up and I am able to use my bookmarks no matter where I am. In addition, the tools I gained through everyone in both classes are amazing. Never thought I would say this, but I will miss this class, well all of your ideas. Finally, check out my final project and let me know what you think.
The most significant learning moments were working with my eighth graders and high school classes to create an Edu.Glogster portfolio which I would have never done without this class. Also, presenting to the faculty with confidence and the over 50 fellow educators at the Hampton Roads Association of Christian Schools was also something that Capstone helped to push me towards.
My next steps professionally would be to continue to be a life-long learner. Probably everyone in this course has that to say as technology is constantly changing and our students pick up to it so very quickly that we have to continue learning to stay ahead of them, or at least try to stay at least a week ahead of them.
Thanks everyone for everything. It would be great for us small school types to have all of your knowledge on a continuous basis. Feel free to stop past my blog anytime you find something new or amazing. Thanks again.
