I am not so overwhelmed at this time as I was last year. I even felt like I had learned something and was doing quite well in the class. I still am not exactly scared of the web page, but definitely anxious. I feel like I need someone to hold my hand through the entire process. I am hoping to get more comfortable as we go along. I'm looking forward to the next class. I am glad that we are at TMS all the time instead of moving around all the time.

November - United Streaming is a great tool. I have used it with my students in the past. I didn't have speakers so it was difficult for the students to hear the sound of the video. I think that I will use the computer lab to do it again or maybe get some speakers to do it in the classroom. I want to get more use through science. I like the Magic School Bus videos and am glad that I learned that the Science Guy is on there too. He's cool. I want to use this tool more with my students. I would like to work on my webpage in December. I am really enjoying this course.

December - I worked on my webpage and got really frustrated. I feel like I need to have a one on one tutorial. I can't get back to where I was, but all that I added in December is on some kind of page. Why can't I seem to get to where I want to go to when I'm not in class? Help!!!!!

January 23rd - I really haven't done anything with my students yet. I'm planning on using united streaming with some up coming content area subjects. I want to start a moodle with my kids during our study of the wars of the twentieth century. I'm trying to finish my webpage and I'm very frustrated.

I hope your frustration was eased a bit. The hassle with the new server upgrade has put us all on edge. Whe will you be doing the Wars unit? Sharon

May 21st I feel bad that I missed so much class. I still need to get that webpage going. I'm glad that I can go to the bootcamp this summer. I really enjoyed my time here and I can't wait to use Thinkfinity for my classes next year. I plan on looking into this further. I really want to get more use out of technology next year. I'm sure I will be calling you often to help. Thanks so much, Sharon for all you have taught me.
