Module+6+Reflection

** Reflection Prompt 6 : **

 How did understanding the standards and the pre-comp verification help you design your FE plan? How can your use your ePortfolio to help others understand how to integrate technology more effectively in the classroom?

 //Description://

 For this module we were asked to create a field experience plan and start thinking about the ePortfolio that we will create by the end of our IT Master's coursework. This plan is designed to get us thinking about what we will be doing between now and graduation to fulfill the field experience requirement of the program.

 //Impact//:

 I really struggled with this assignment due to the fact that I really didn't have a concrete plan on what I would be doing to fulfill my field experience requirement. I read a lot of posts from discussions between my fellow classmates, most of which work in a k-12 environment. I feel that those students are a little more plugged in to things that can be done in a school district and have access to colleagues where they can share what they have learned about using technology in the classroom.

 //Intent//:

 My intent for the field experience requirement is that I would like to become involved in the IT Master's wiki. I spend a lot of time on the internet looking up new things about technology in education. This would be a way for me to share with fellow students. I also want to develop some professional development sessions regarding implementing Web 2.0 tools in the classroom. I hope to share these with teachers that I know and also see if their schools would allow me to share with them as well. I'm also going to talk to colleagues of mine who are currently teaching online courses and collaborate with them on different tools they can implement in their courses.
