(Seminar 2 hours, laboratory 2 hours)”
I found this class to be a continuation of ETEC 110 with similar projects. The class did though provide useful and new information regarding copyright and fair use. We also had a group activity where we had to assess Technology Plans for different K-12 Schools. It was interesting to see how schools plan out what they intend to do when it comes to technology and what the refresh cycles are. One of the projects from this class was the PowerPoint Project which allowed me the opportunity to convert my lesson plan for the first day of a first Semester German class to a PowerPoint presentation. I might keep this in mind since it would free up the dry erase boards for having the class write on while the PowerPoint has the basic information for the in class activities being projected on a screen.
