Game Plan- Week 3 Post

As mentioned from the previous post, I want my students to become socially responsible for themselves on various types of media they encounter. I want them to realize that their actions have consequences and they need to be responsible for them. In order for me to convey the severity and importance of web safety, I will utilize my colleagues to make connections across the curricula. This way the students see that it is a collaborative effort to protect them and aid them ultimately in their studies. I also feel it is important to allow the students to explore Web 2.0 tools only after being in serviced on them myself. I was lucky enough to be part of the Powerful Learning Practice Cohort lead by Will Richardson. I have learned many ways to use technology within my classroom but I feel the students can also teach me as well. They linked to technology constantly and working together benefits us both. I also will continue my professional development to keep me abreast of new technologies that arise.

Since beginning my Master Program I feel I have taken my knowledge of technology to new heights. I have gained many strategies to engage my students and modify teaching to aid them the best way I can. I hope to continue my educational
pursuits and aid my students by utilizing these pedagogues within my classroom.
