As I said last week, it amazes me that this class over. I have been frustrated at times, yet that feeling usually subsided once I really looked at my GLAME Plan and took it piece by piece. I believe that the biggest "Aha" moment for me was simply realizing the importance of HAVING a GAME Plan! This truly helped me to stay focused on my goals and allowed me to truly identify what was or wasn't working, so that I could adjust my lessons accordingly.
Immediately, I will focus more on the NETS-T standards, which really helped me in planning my activities. I will strive to use small groups more often, as well as give students more freedom in their learning by doing continued PBL activities. Although I have had difficulty acquiring computers for my classroom, I can see how using technology across the curriculum is of great benefit. My goal is to work alongside my school's technology team to acquire as many working computers as possible for our school and then REALLY use them to reach our goals.
I would like to thank everyone for their amazing ideas and wonderful insight! I have learned so much from you!

ReplyDeleteAmy,
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your AHA moment. Maybe you can work with your technology department to acquire some laptops for your students. Better yet, write a grant for laptops in your classroom. Good luck.
