Is It the End, or Only the Beginning?


Wow!  I do not think I have ever been so relieved of completing an assignment.  No offense.  I have literally worked on the last section of the "things" I had left all day.  Comparing this to the first part, I find these last ones more addicting and less time consuming.  It is almost midnight and I have been working on the last half since about three o'clock.  I did not expect to get done today, but I just could not put my laptop down. 

During this journey of 23 Things some of my favorite exercises consisted of video animation, photo animation, the flow chart and mind map, Delicious, and the Wiki.  So many resources were offered within this program that I plan to use for educational purposes one day.  Some of the "things" I absolutely hated, but there were several that I plan to use to benefit my learning experiences and my future classroom lessons.  Before this program I honestly had know idea of the limitless resources avaliable to teachers. 

I plan to maintain my blog to create it into something I can use for when I become a secondary teacher.  Blogging provides numerous oppotunities to collaborate and share ideas.  As a future educator, I want my students to learn through today's world and interaction.  I plan to continue blogging and providing videos and other resources for my future students.  It is very important to me to provide my students the opportunity to expand their styles of learning.  That is exactly what I plan to do, and I would not have background knowledge if it were not for this tutorial of 23 Things.

  1. First off, I love the picture and your background, secondly, I'm glad someone other than myself plans to keep and maintain their blog. Perhaps we can all start a social community sharing ideas.
