My future classroom will be an elementary class. I will do things different from other teachers in my future classroom. I will be a hands-on teacher, I firmly believe if y experience it you will remember. My classroom will be a more technology based environment for my students. I want all my students to be technology literate and know how to use different electronic devices. I want to be the type of teacher that makes her students well-rounded in all aspects of learning. My teaching method needs to be infectious to other teachers so all kids can get the proper education.
The Smartboard will be used in my classroom because it keeps the kids brain flowing and they get to experiment with it as well. I will also do blogging every now and then as a class to show the students how much information we can retrieve off the Internet and connecting with people. All my students will learn how to tweet and use facebook as a source of connecting with other students around the world. Skype and facetime will come along after that. There are so many other technologies we will use along the way.
I was a person who always believed in old-school learning, I am so glad I don't think that way anymore. Burp Back education is not what I want my students to learn and get comfortable with. I will teach my class very different from they way I learned it. My class will start off with warming up exercises such as counting, alphabets, months, or seasons. There are many things I can develop along they way to add to my daily curriculum.
I do want my students involved and I want to know how comfortable they are with certain tools. I think I will be able to figure out who learns better with what instrument. All kids are different in their own ways and they learn at their own pace and teachers should recognize their strenghts. Many kids look up to their teachers for motivation and I want to be a cheerleader for my kids, I want to cheer them all the way to the finish line.
Time To Make A Change
The way I wanted to run my classroom in the beginning before EDM#310 was gonna be very outdated and boring compared to my new outlook on the way I want to do it now. There are so many different tools out there for kids to use to enhance their learning. Technology is not my strongest area, but I have gotten better since I'm taking edm310. I would never include all these technologies before, now I understand how much these tools would help them learn more effectively.
I will have computers throughout my classroom, in the beginning I didn't know much about blogging. I have changed my views about technology in the classroom, because of what I have learned. The Internet holds an enormous amount of information we just need to monitor our students on how they use it. I would urge all teachers to at least give this method a chance.
