Blog #9

Discuss the changes you notice in your understanding and skill with the technical resources and concepts we have used in class.

This class was great - not only from a professional point of view, but personal as well. I have long tried to figure out how to crop a picture and put a silly hat one someone. I could never do it. I bought a video camera around Christmas and could never figure out how to do anything with the videos. Now I can manipulate images and put together a quality video. I don't know what I will end up teaching or when - but I will have plenty of opportunity to use what I have learned once I get a job. The great thing about this class, is I will be able to use what I have learned outside of work. I really enjoy making the movies and it sure beats watching 6 hours of boring video to watch the 30 seconds of what you really want to watch.

From the perspective of becoming a teacher, knowing how to use the tools we learned this quarter will help me teach it to the kids - but more than that it will allow me to enhance the learning experience in other classes I teach as well.

This was a great class!

I posted on Ron's blog....again.

I agree as well. I will use this information to aid in my teaching career.

I agree that this class was good. I learned many new teaching strategies.
Hopefully I can include some of this in my current program. Good luck
