Final thoughts

I thought I'd write about the class as a whole, but while watching the video I just kept thinking how much more I know about my classmates because of these videos.  I would love to do this with my students. I would hope it would be the same affect.  Students that may never talk outside of class would have a different perspective of their classmates.  I think the videos tell a lot about each person just from the idea that they chose.  Most of us told a story that we were passionate about.  Digital stories are great for any classroom, they can be as detailed or simple as you'd wish.

I just wanted to say that this class really helped me grow as a teacher.  I didn't think I could learn so much in 2 weeks.  I know I will keep the wiki page on my toolbar for a long time in the future!  Sharing all the different web2.0 pages was very helpful and just proved how many are actually out there. When she asked us, I first thought, but I'm sure she has them all on the wiki.  I was proven wrong, I will share this with my students to show them, how many free sites are available.

I think I will continue to do a short of blog either inside or outside the classroom.  I've found it easy to organize my thoughts, now I just need people to want to read what I have to say :)
