When first starting college, I used the clicker. It was a very new technology gadget for me coming out of high school . However it is a great tool for the students and the teacher. The teachers are able to pose questions and the software immediately grade the students work. It also display the percent of how many people answered the questions right or wrong. The percent of the question can tell the teacher a lot . If its a question commonly missed, the information probably was not a widely understood topic.The students could also go back in and change their answers as well. Also we used the clicker to take attendance so technology is a part of advancement and can make education enjoyable.

Overall this class has been very informative.Now I'm more knowledgable about technology and how it can have a great impact on learning.I would encourage all future teachers to take this course. It is important as a teacher to know a number of tactics and strategies to keep your students engaged. Teachers should not limit their knowledge because they should constantly think of ways to better accomadte their students. I really enjoyed the different sites to make blogs it also allowed creativity and you had to research on the topic on which was being discussed. Overall this class was a success and I learned new things.
