CALL has been rolling out in school boards for decades however more recently the advancements within it have provided us with endless opportunities to reach a wide range of learnings especially our special education students and English language learners. The video below highlights the importance of CALL within the classroom.

There have been various discussions and ideas in which I have been able to gain more knowledge then I had previously with regards to CALL. Prior to the course I was using CALL within my classroom due to the needs of my students however within this course I have been able to learn how effective it truly is with all students not only special education students and ELLs. The benefits of CALL I
believe out weight the cons. Through my own students success I have been able to see their confidence within themselves grow as well as their own exploration to see how else they can use the technology to advance their learning. This course has provided me with more knowledge of how and what other types of apps and softwares are available for myself and my students to use to enhance their learning as well as the various resources for myself as an educator to refer back to in order to gain a new perspective or ideas to implement within my classroom. The course has also provided me to think more intensivly about the future of CALL and how that will reflect on my students and myself. It is interesting
to see the development thus far however it will be interesting to see the benefits of how CALL will assist students in the future. The biggest take away from this course would be the encouragement of trying to pieces of technology and not being afraid to use it within my classroom as students often are able to show us more about a piece of assistive technology then what we can learn on our own.

There is much more I believe I can continue to do for my own learning as well as the learning of those around me.  I have recently decided to continue to pursue knowledge within implementing technology within my classroom through attending various professional development series which touch upon technology within my classroom and different methods and ways in which technology can be used to enhance our students learning.
Secondly, through acquiring this knowledge I have realized the need of sharing this information with those around me. Thus, my teaching partner and myself are planning and designing a Lunch and Learn specifically for the staff at my school to learn more about Google Read and Write.  We have found that staff often do not use technology within their classrooms due to not feeling comfortable with it thus we have decided since our students are using Google Read and Write within their various other classrooms it is important for those teachers and other staff members to be aware of what students are using and how it can benefit them.
Third, A personal goal for myself would be to be more familiar with the pieces of technology within my schools MakerSpace, it is evident that these pieces of technology can be used within my classroom to engage student further in their exploration and learning of various concepts across various subjects. Thus providing for rich experiences  and cross curricular learning to occur.

Below is a list of a few resources I have began saving and looking at as I advance within my journey of Computer Assisted Language Learning and Technology within the classroom!
