Strengths and Weaknesses

I feel like my technology muscles are as strong as Hercules. I feel well equipped, prepared, and knowledgeable to use technology in education. Teacher NETS standard A states, "demonstrate introductory knowledge, skills, and understanding of concepts related to technology." I feel I have surpassed introductory knowledge and can create my own technology to teach my students. My weaknesses lie in the little details of computer malfunctions. Often I have come across technical glitches in technology that I cannot fix immediately, but given time I could.

Although I feel I have great strength in technology I know I can approve on my awareness of what support is given for teachers. UEN is providing a mini course on using PBS in education. PBS is awesome for children and I would love to see the possibilities. This PBS website is called teacher line. Teacher line is a resource I can use to involve PBS into my curriculum. I love PBS because it is created to support the growth of children.

I also realize to make my strengths stronger and weaknesses less weak I can take classes on materials I already know. I know that I can always learn something new from anyone. I really like the mini class "Digital camera in the classroom" Its a class on how to use the digital camera to teach and have fun. I know this class will also be a tool for my development. Technology is filled with infinite possibilities and the students love technology.
