Throughout the semester I was introduced to new technological apps many of which will eventually be incorporated into my own classroom. I learned not only how to operate and explore them, but also how to evaluate and compare them. Furthermore, through the exploration of these tools, I learned how they can be used to engage students to increase a more active style of learning. Through a more active style of learning, students will not only retain more, but have fun while they’re doing it.

My goals moving forward as a future teacher include being able to confidently incorporate different forms of technology into my classroom. I hope that by integrating technology into my lessons children will find the content more relevant to them. In addition, I hope that by using apps in a classroom setting it will create a more universally designed learning environment that appeals to all the different learning styles. My main objective through this is to convince students once again that learning can be and should be fun by making the content come alive.
