Welcome to my blog

Good Afternoon,

I am currently in the ED 480 class and we were asked by our instructor, Mr. Jenkins, to do a little blog about what we've learned so far, and what we expect to learn. So far, I've learned to use different softwares to create a mind map. Two out of three of the software that we were introduced to are really helpful and will certainly be used in my classroom when I become a teacher. I also learned about the difference between propriety software and open source software. Propriety software is a software owned by an individual or company, whereas opensource software is free. Another thing that I've learned is this whole thing right here---how to create a blog. Moreover, there are many other things about technology that I am looking forward to learning about. The reason why I took this course is becasue it is a required course to graduate, but now that I've seen what we can really do with technology, I am taking this course because I WANT to.

I expect to learn about the different tools that I could use as a teacher to enhance the learning of my students. I would want to know how to integrate technology with other subjects to have a meaningful and authentic learning experience for my students
