Youtube can be very helpful when struggling with technology!  Sometimes it may take several videos but generally, it helps with any tech issues!

I have found it important to do research on different ways to improve technology in my classroom without school funding. I have applied for grants, used personal money, created a classroom wish list, and utilized fundraising money to support classroom technology.

I enjoy using technology in class. However, I wish were given professional development time to develop new technology resources. I feel people are more hesitant to use new technology because we aren't given the time to be introduced to the technology or given time to become comfortable with it before using it with students. Teachers like to be fluent in a resource before presenting to students so that in the event there is an issue, we aren't wasting valuable class time to problem-solve/troubleshoot.

During Covid, I was not teaching so I feel as though I missed out on the growing pains of teaching online. As frustrating as teaching online sounded, teachers also advanced themselves with different technology options. I feel I missed out on growing myself in the area of technology by missing out on online teaching.

The ability to communicate with parents throughout the day with communication tools such as Seesaw and Class Dojo helps bridge the gap between parents and schools. It allows parents to see what their children are doing throughout the day.

I have also used communication tools such as Remind, email, and class websites.
