I think that the most difficult thing about implementing digital photo stories in the classroom is that I'm not sure I have the hang of creating movies. I am afraid that they will ask me for help and that I will not how to give it to them. Another hard thing is that they might easily get off task while looking up pictures or music.

TPACK

I understand TPACK to be something that is technology and that we should be teaching it. I think it's important for us to understand technology because every day there are in advances in technology and if we want our students to be productive and useful citizens we need to teach them to keep up on what's happening in the world around them. If we are not educated in technology then we will fall behind. Our students will also fall behind from our lack of knowledge. I need to be well versed in every technological advance that can help me in the classroom.

Facebook video message

This is my asynchronous clip.

Most Important

I think the most important thing I learned was how to create google documents and how to post videos on the website. I think having the worksheets that we did in class or that we are going to do would be really beneficial to my students. They could either get a head start in class or they could get the worksheet if they missed class. I think the video was also important because if I show a video in class they might want to show their parents or watch it later. I could also put on videos that weren't in class so they could be learning more about the subject. I am excited that my students will be able to have resources when they are not in my classroom.

Creating a website

So I thought it was going to be really difficult to make a website. It actually wasn't that difficult though. The tutorials helped a lot though! I'm excited that I have this knowledge at my fingertips now. I'm sure that I will use it in my future classroom.

My Technology Experience

I had a really difficult time at first. When I was creating my moodle account I had a blonde moment because I thought surname meant Ms. or Mrs. so it came up as Kierstin Ms. So then I had to go and edit that. The blog was actually not that hard to create, which was good for me because I obviously struggle. So here I am writing this post. I just had to reset my password because it said that my e-mail was already in use. I did that and it was easy to create after that.
