I am familiar with blogs. In fact, some of my friends and family have their own blogs which I follow. However, I've never created my own blog before. I like to think of myself as tech savvy, but I have to admit learning Blogger has been somewhat challenging. Learning Blogger reminds me of the first time I learned Google Sites. It can be overwhelming at first, but once I start playing around with the tool and exploring all I can do, it becomes much easier. After it becomes easier, then I can start to see the benefits of using the tool and then begin to design and plan how to integrate the tool into my curriculum. That is one of my favorite parts about teaching is being able to design and plan learning experiences for my students and then to watch them grow and succeed.
After reading over the course assignments for Instructional Apps of the Internet, I feel this course will be challenging due to the fact that I am not as familiar with the technologies we will be using. However, I am excited to learn how to use and apply the new technologies. The challenges I will face through this course will be opportunities for me to learn and grow as an educator. This is going to be a great course!
