Reflection: As I reflect back on the journey that I have taken over the last 9 months, I can honestly say that I am not only a better teacher, but I am a better person for my students and school. One of the goals that I set for my self was to be a better teacher and to let the students be more innovative with their thinking. I want to continue to use real world issues to teach my students. They need to know what is going on around them not only in their school, community, and town, but they need to know what is happening nationally and globally. It is my goal to be able to some day have the ability and the means to talk to other classrooms via the internet or by using Skype technology. I want to improve my teaching skills and methods by using more of the tools that I have been introduced to throughout this class. It is my hope that my school can be among the leaders in technology and the utilization of that technology. none SavePreviewText Editor Help · About · [|Blog] · Terms · Privacy · [|**Support**] · **Upgrade**
