Much to my chagrin, I come to the end of the semester and found that I learned again. I'm not sure how this happens. It seems I do my best to resist it, but I just can't help myself.
In particular, I've learned that Technology can be used in the classroom, supposing the resources are available for the students. That is highly unlikely for a choral director. Imagine 200 students (the size of Bearden middle's choir) cramming into a computer lab. Besides, there just isn't time to integrate technology skills into my class.
However little I believe it may be integrated into my student's lives, I can integrate it into mine. Some of the things I've learned help with designing assessments, and may be a valid bridge to online assessments or homework. I will continue to look into these options, especially since I have a father who is a computer programmer for TVA.
I also am thankful for this class that we have done a website. I may change everything, but it is a good start for my personal website. I have been meaning to design one, but now I have that process started. I'm excited to get to the finished product and see just what that will look like.
