At first I wasn’t really sure what to think of this class. I thought it was just going to be another one of those classes that required you to just search for “stuff.” I was wrong. This class was so much more than that. I have learned so many things, particularly the importantance of using technology to teach our students. I have also learned that it is so very important for all teachers, regardless of subject matter, to participate in some sort of vocabulary instruction. I loved the fact that we had to establish a blog, which I plan to keep going. I also liked the loads of sites which contained materials, lessons, and instruction. I have learned many valuable skills from this class that will stick with me forever. I feel sad and happy at the same time about this class being over; happy that it’s one more class completed and I’m that much closer to my goal, and sad because it’s actually over. I was just starting to get into it!! Thanks to everyone who contributed such great information and ideas! I hope that you all continue to use your blogs so we can share ideas and information. Good luck to you all! Dr. Trathen, thanks for such a great and wonderful learning experience! I thoroughly enjoyed it!

This blog will be great to use while we are teaching to bounce ideas off each other.

I’ve been thinking about what it would have been like if it all wasn’t placed in a summer course. Very enjoyable, especially for the time frame!
