FINAL POST

This class was one of the biggest challenges I have had in school so far!!!
I was so nervous coming into this class, because I am not the most computer savvy person. I now how to go on line, but I didn't  know how to make videos, slides, interactive activities and blogs.
But with Ginny's help I over came more obstacles than I thought possible. I am still a little nervous, but I know I can do any of the stuff we learned. (just a little slow).
I am excited about the possibilities that I will have using all the technology I have learned.
I am really excited about the interactive board. I had no clue how this worked for a long time,,,and now I do!!!
This is going to help me come into the 21st century.
Thank you Ginny for truly caring about your students and being so patient with me.  :)

I am really excited about my first professional page. I was extremely nervous about using technology that I have never used before, but I have become more confident in doing web pages, videos, and other internet oriented tools. I feel my students will benefit from using this type of technology.
I have often wondered how sites were made and videos of the class, and now I know!!
I am more excited than ever to get started teaching so I can figure ways of incorporating into the class room.
I feel my web page will be a useful tool to find out information about me and what my expectations in teaching are.
I like how we had the chance to personalize it, yet make it professional

What went right?
I was able add the sites and things that I use a lot to the site. It is an easy way of storing things that
you will use a lot, and have access to them anywhere there's a computer.

What went wrong?
For some reason I had a hard time getting the link on my blogger. Adding all the sites and information you will be using can take a lot of time.

How will I use this in the class room?
This would be a valuable tool for my students to use. The things we will be working on in class will be easy for them to access at home, it will all be on one page. They can take their lessoons with them anywhere they go.

Aaron Copland Video project

What went right ?I feel the over all video looks really good. I got the main ideas that I was wanting to use across. This was my first time using this program and I fell i did good on it. I think people would understand who Aaron Copland is after watching this video.

What went wrong? This was a challenge for me. I stressed over this, a lot! I had a hard time with the pictures in the beginning. I found out, the hard way, you have to use a certain size picture or it will not work. I didn't know the first set of pics I used were the wrong size. some of my frames move way too slow, and didnt match the music.

  How will I use this in the class room? This was be an incredible tool with my marching band. For the year end dinner, have pictures set to the years marching band show music. Telling the story of the first day of band, to use winning everything! ( I can dream) The students can add their own touch to the movie.
