Class 2 Reflection

I really enjoyed class on Thursday because it was interesting to learn about my classmates. I liked looking at some of the other PowerPoint presentations. It surprised me that there are so many features of PowerPoint that most people don't know about, like the transparency tool for pictures. I learned about PowerPoint in one of my media classes last semester. I really liked helping people figure out how to do different things, like animate their slides and use slidemaster. I realized that I know more than I think I do, and also how much fun it is to help other people learn more about technology.
Using Inspiration was fun, too. I also covered that in my EDM class last semester, but not very in-depth. I'm looking forward to using it more and learning some other features.
Even though we've only had 2 classes so far, I'd say this is probably my favorite class! It's important for teachers to know how to use technology effectively in the classroom. My job will be to support them in that effort. Getting education majors comfortable with technology while they're in college will make it easier for them (and for me) to integrate technology into the classroom. I can't wait until Thursday!
