Another Week of Reflections

My reflection of this week tends to be one of application-based. It seems with each read in this class, I come up with one or two new ideas of ways to improve my instruction and enhance technology. Actually. . . this enhancing technology thing has more to do with enhancing my instruction, rather than simply improving what I'm already doing.

As I begin to think about what I'm learning (hmmm. . . . metacognition :) I'm actually molding and determining exactly what my view of technology in the classroom is. Additionally, I'm fortunate enough to begin placing much of the topics in this class in action with the Instruction Design project that I'm working on in our ID class. Further connecting the dots, the ID project is a course that I will be teaching in the upcoming semester . . . how much more of an application-based assignment could there be?

Finally, I do feel that my view of technology implementation is developing each and every week. I also knew that I could begin implementing tools in my class, but never really knew where I wanted to start. Though I'm not totally decided, I feel that I have a strong view about how I will initially introduce technology further in my classes. With that said, I still need to research further and review assessment data to determine what successful implementation may look like.
