Final Blog

This semester of EDM 310 has been eye-opening. We have learned how to use technology and media to increase our effectiveness in the classroom. We have seen the importance of fostering creativity in our students. Our ability to use technology to create projects in varied forms has improved. While difficult at times, EDM 310 has been very rewarding. I now feel confident in my ability to utilize every tool available to me in the classroom.
EDM 310 forced me to do things I wouldn’t normally. EdPuzzle, ALEX, video editing, and interactive PowerPoint are just a few of the projects we tackled. I even enjoyed the group projects. As someone who normally detests group work, this means a lot. Class was always informative and entertaining. Our teacher, Mr. Tashbin, was always willing to help answer any question we had. Mr. Tashbin truly facilitated our growth as future educators.
Personally, I will miss this class. EDM 310 has helped me in many ways. My ability to utilize technology has vastly improved. I have learned a lot that I will be able to use in the classroom. Overall, despite the sometimes daunting workload, this class has been quite rewarding.
