After reviewing my personal theory of learning, I do not feel that I will make any major modifications. I will continue to utilize collaboration in my classroom. I believe that by allowing students to collaborate and to utilize each other’s strengths and build upon their weaknesses, they become more involved in the learning process and are more inclined to retain the material. Also, I will try to encompass as many learning theories into my classroom as possible to try to reach all learning styles and abilities.
I am eager to use Voice Thread and virtual tours in my classroom. I have already had my students try out the virtual tour. They seemed to enjoy the experience. I am getting ready to have my Computer Apps II class complete a project using Voice Thread. I’m excited to see how this will work out.
One goal that I have is to use more images and graphics in my PowerPoint presentations. From listening to Dr. Orey speak in his videos, I realized that maybe I use too many words and not enough images. Another goal I have is just to embrace different technologies and to not be afraid to make changes and expand on what I have been doing in the past. I am excited to learn and use about different technologies and to utilize them in my classroom.
