Final Reflection

My final closing thoughts are that I learned SOOO much!! There is so much out there that I had never heard of before. I am a little frightened by where we need to be going with technology. I do think we are going to lose a lot of the personal contact. I don't know if this is all making our lives easier or just giving us more to do?

While I learned a lot, this course took me a lot longer than 15 hours. I think the last section could almost be a course in itself. Looking into the future of technology could be a course. They made a lot of great comments on how we need to change and where we are going, maybe we could look more into what other countries are doing for their education using technology.

I haven't taken an online course before and I can tell that this is not the best way for me to learn. I think going to a computer lab and having someone lead it is a better way for me to learn. That is why I am so concerned for kids who will not be good at learning this way if this is the future of education. How are we going to keep those kids engaged in learning?

This course was very organized we knew exactly what we needed to do from day one. Thanks for your patience with all of the technical glitches!
