I predict this course will be valuable to me in adding more methods to my teaching.  It was interesting to me to read and listen to the content in Module 1.  I appreciated the reminder to start with what you do know, that being how to teach, then work from there. I think I was focusing so much on what I don't know just like Nancy Frey in the video from our text.  It's so easy to get caught in the quagmire of all that goes wrong.  I hope I will be able to remind myself to think a bit differently about my teaching and all of my strengths and resilience.

I would like to give myself the time and framework to reflect on this past year.  I have not done this.  Reflection has always worked for me in my career as and Educator.  I was in crisis mode these last few months and need time to be still, look through my scope and sequences and pick out those activities that were valuable. I am grateful to have this opportunity.  I feel as though I am being recognized as a professional because this class and stipend was given to me.

I predict that this course will help me with more tools to be more effective at engaging students in online learning and choosing the best tools depending on what I want students to do and allow a greater variety of activities.

While I already used a fair amount of technology in my classroom I hope to be able to implement more technology in a way that should we ever need to "transition" to remote learning again I'll already have practices in place in my classroom that would make that a little more seamless.

I predict that this course will be allow me to learn new strategies for online teaching. In addition, I hope to collaborate and share resources with other educators so that I can improve my ability to teach online more effectively.

My goal is to add more tech tools and resources to my toolbox.  I’m particularly interested in making sure that online resources are accessible to my students who are deaf or hard of hearing.

I predict that this course will be valuable to me because it will allow me to further develop my online teaching practices so that I can further enhance student learning whether it is in the classroom or online.
My goal for this course is to be able to collaborate with fellow educators to gain more ideas and insights into best practices and resources that will further engage my students whether its an online or classroom environment.

# data[].attributes.body
I predict that this course will add more technology resources to my toolkit, allow me to connect with other educators who dealt with the same stressors of online teaching, and guide my reflection process of the last year.

I hope to use this class as a time to reflect on the last year, find the positives, and use my reflections to look forward to the next school year. I'm looking forward to reading other educators reflections and commentary to aid my reflection and continue my lifelong learning journey.

I hope to learn new strategies for online teaching. To look at things that worked and didn’t work with online learning. I think it will be beneficial learning new ways to engage students online. I struggled at times with the technology and figuring out what would engage the students. I will learn best practices for online learning.

I hope to become better acquainted with online technology. My goal is to understand and be able to implement technology more effectively into my classroom.

Module 1 Assignment 3

I predict that we will have a chance to work with others and share what worked and didn't and then use that information to set goals and practice. It will be interesting to work with a new group of people on the goals.

I am hopeful that  I can learn more tech that is useful even with limited internet connections an/or ways to get around that issue that have worked for others, including more asynchronous work to allow my students to take on further responsibility. I know that teams can be a great support when they share and discuss issues and ideas.

# data[].attributes.body
I am hoping to learn new techniques for online learning.  I use a lot of online tools and techniques in my physical classroom so even if we do not go remote again, I will likely benefit from new online ideas.

I want give this course my best effort. It will be a challenge with all the summer distractions and commitments. I always want to be a better teacher and that is my primary goal for this course.

In this course, I will expect a couple new ideas to what we as a community of educators have to offer. For example, new resources introduced to better the learning and understanding of students education. Another thing that I expect in this course is to use behavioral traits from students to better the environment in an online classroom. This course will better my experience as an educator because I will learn new concepts to make sure students will get the same learning experience compared to an in-class experience.

My goal in this course is to learn more in the virtual learning field.

I hope to grow my understanding of online instruction.  I would like to learn from others and the instructors in order to increase my efficiency as an online educator should the opportunity arise again.  Our district is already offering PD on certain online platforms that we are using in the class.  I hope to become more familiar and comfortable with these platforms through our work.

My goal is to continue to grow as a lifelong learner and promote learning for all students no matter where they choose to learn. I want to learn more about the tools that will help me become a better educator for the 21st century learner.

Module1: Assignment 3

I am hoping that I will become more confident in my ability to teach remotely.  I believe that I will learn  to use additional tools and practices to assist the children I am working with. Communicating with others who have been and are in the same boat, makes me feel like I am on the right track.

My goals are to continue to learn as much as possible about remote teaching and learning.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm excited for this opportunity to connect with colleagues that although we are in different roles in education, we have all been impacted by virtual learning for the past year and a half.  I appreciate the fact that we can be vulnerable with what has worked and what hasn't as we faced challenges and successes on the virtual teaching journey.  My goals include gathering new tools and strategies to help me prepare effective and meaningful online learning for young learners.

I believe that this course will be valuable to me because it will further my understanding of the benefits of a digital classroom. I look forward to doing valuable research and collaborate with peers to gain new perspective.

My goals are to build a toolbox of tech based accommodations for my classroom. My goal is to take this knowledge and bring it back to enhance my curriculum and effectiveness as an educator.

I predict this course will be valuable to me because it will allow me to research, utilize, and apply more practices to my classroom in the realm of technology to help enhance my curriculum, and as a result, enhance student engagement and understanding. I will also have the ability to view examples from other participants within this course, as well as the opportunity to bounce ideas off of one another.

My goals are to continue to develop my knowledge of technology and tech skills in order to further apply these practices within my classroom. I would like to broaden my use of digital resources, online educational platforms, and activities for my specific content area, as well as complete this course with lessons I can deliver this coming school year.

I expect this course will be valuable to me in the variety of resources and ideas to be shared from the course content and also from the contributions of the participants.

My goals are to learn best practices for online learning and find resources and technology tools that will help to make online teaching most effective for me and engaging for my students.

I believe that technology, ZOOM, distance learning will continue to be a part of education.  There are some students that do well in this setting and have the executive function/organizational skills to thrive.  I am hoping to gain from this course the ability to create technologically sound lessons that my students may access in order to enrich their understanding of particular concepts/skills.

It is my intention through this 5 week on-line course that I will further my knowledge of the technology that teachers have used while instructing during distance learning.  By gaining insight into others’ teaching practices and technology use, it is also my hope to continue to add to my current “toolbox” when instructing students whether in person or the remote setting.

I predict this course will be beneficial and will help to improve my strategies and tools for remote teaching as well as in person teaching! I look forward to collaborating with other professionals who may offer insight to their own experiences (especially for special education).  Every school runs differently (with both positives and negatives) and I hope to take what I learn and practice it in my own classroom!

I look forward to learning from colleagues new strategies to teach virtually, as well as how to troubleshoot particular problems we faced (mostly participatory) during remote instruction.

My goal is to add more "tools" to my toolbox to create engaging lessons to secondary students.

# data[].attributes.body
I am excited to learn from others and find out what worked and did not work during remote instruction. I hope to improve some of the strategies and tools that I incorporated this past year both for remote and in person learning so that they will foster in person learning this coming year. Also, (and no one wants this to happen) if we are required to pivot to remote learning again, how best to make this a valuable experience for both teachers and students.

# data[].attributes.body
I predict this course will be valuable to me by providing me with new online learning activities and resources. I
am excited to learn more about remote learning and tools in order to decide what my topic area will be for the end of the course.
