Post Seven


In chapter seven, I learned about the appropriateness of using educatoinal technology. You have to make sure the technology is valid and can be used efficiently. There are meetings that teachers can attend to discuss the quality of certain educational technologies being used.
I have also learned that there is a thing called EDTECH. EDTECH is a program for teachers to communicate and share ideas about the technology they have been using in their classrooms and give feedback. I find this a good resource to know about because you can get different opinions about educational technology tools before you choose to use them. This way teaching with those tools will be more effiencent and beneficial to your students.
Since my last post I have learned a lot more about power point. I used to make many power point presentation in middle school for different classes, but I was never taught an in depth way of using the program. There is a lot more to power point then I had thought before.
