Week Thirteen
What scares me the most is being so behind and feeling like I do not have enough time in the day to learn it all. It takes longer to learn, being a digital immigrant. I am learning to just deal with it and ask for help from others around me. Soon I am sure I will be asking my six year old (or my two year old) for help.
Week Fourteen
After looking at our district's technology plan, I have already talked to my collegues about it. we are bringing it up with our program supervisor, our site principal, and will take it to the superindentent as well for equal access for training for us and our kids. We want specifics as to how it will be implemented. (we are becoming a little pushy =) )
Week Fifteen
What things I will take from this class? There is so much!!!
I have already showed all my related service providers the website and we are cooridnating how to have additional websites (through google sites) for each provider.
I am going to relook and delve into the websites provided. I have a collegues who is getting all the students who would have gone to county programs and she needs LOTS of resources on AT and ammunition to defned WHY she needs it. I am working with her on the websites that have been given.
I am getting my website developed more, will be doing video podcasts for all the teachers in SDC at our site, and will be trying to video tape my parent trainings.
I told my collegues about the "office" that you had and how we could have own office hours for consultation. THEY WERE THRILLED!! We are going to develop our "offices" and have parents access us that way as well.
After looking at our technology plan and letting my collegues know what is in it, we are advocating for equal access and training not only to us, but for our students. (The district hated me before, now I am REALLY getting their feathers ruffled =) )
We are starting to collaborate on google docs and putting our data forms there.
I have LOVED this class. I am already looking into the AT certificate. Watch out San Ramon!! =)
