I have learned that there is more to the internet than just Facebook and Pinterest. There are tons of educational websites available for free that teachers can use. Because I am an Elementary Education major, I will be using some of these websites in the future possibly in my classroom or as a student in the upcoming semesters.
I think my favorite tool was the website creator, Wix. I used that to create my website for the virtual tour assignment. It was interesting creating my own website and I think the idea of a virtual tour/ field trip/ assignment is a great. I will definitely be doing that in my classroom somehow. I also liked the binder website and the website that we could search anything and it would pop up on things like twitter and google images. Hopefully, I will be able to ask my students to use those in some way.
I would liked to have learned more about using the SmartBoard and everything it has to offer. I think some schools have those now and are using them more. I have used them a few times and it's very confusing. I also think there's a website that provides lessons for the SmartBoard and I would have liked to have been able to learn about that and how to do different think on the board.
Overall, I think this was a useful class because it provided me with useful websites and information to use in the future.
