How do you predict this course might be valuable to you?
I definitely could use more technology resources for my toolkit. I would love to learn more about what else is out there to reach students virtually.

What are your intentions/goals for your learning in this course?
I would love to connect with other educators and learn more about what has worked best for them, what they felt really engaged their students remotely. It was a tough year and just to feel some positivity from others!

How do you predict this course might be valuable to you?
My primary purpose for joining this course was to make contacts and to see how other teachers navigated remote learning, what tools they liked, and what pitfalls they found.
What are your intentions/goals for your learning in this course?
I am currently working on new curriculum for a course that I will be teaching asynchronously and I hope to apply some of what I learn here to that process.

I think this course will be beneficial to understanding the best ways to integrate technology into an English classroom.  Whether it's in person or remote.

My goal is to better understand how to use technology in an English classroom.

1. Hi! My name is Laurie Grant and I'm a Child Find Coordinator and Running Start Child Development Teacher for High School students. I do alright with technology but seriously lack confidence. I would like to better be able to integrate youtube observations of children with guiding questions that help students learn the importance of observing young children.
2. And my end goal is to rework at least a part of of one of my units (early infancy?), incorporating new platforms to make it more engaging considering the remote setting.

Hello! I am excited to be a part of this class. Although remote learning opened up some new platforms for me that I had no experience with, I feel like there is still so much more I could learn to reach my students. A goal would be to build a toolbox of different learning platforms, apps, and websites that I could use to interact with my students. Even if we are no longer virtual, they have spent so much time this last year on the computer, so we are going to carry over some of that computer use into the classroom. I hope to learn more ways to virtually interact and teach my students.

1.     How do you predict this course might be valuable to you?

Hi everyone, I’m John Connor.  When I get back into teaching, I will know some tools and strategies for online teaching.  I am currently an at-home caregiver, though some day I expect to be back helping students learn either in a brick-and-mortar building or online.  I want to keep pace and demonstrate to students, associates, and administration that I am up to the challenge.  What I’ve learned from colleagues this week has been eye-opening at times!  I believe this course can help me collaborate better for future online teaching.

2.     What are your intentions/goals for your learning in this course?

One intention is to see learn about some of the best websites, apps, and other tools available for use with students.  Another is to learn to communicate equivalently and be better understood online. Finally, helping students self-regulate better online (and in the classroom) is more and more necessary today than ever.

1. I predict this course will be valuable to me as I benefit from the experiences of others and get hands on practice with applications that I have not used before.
2. My goal is to learn new skills and techniques to successfully facilitate remote learning/training. I enjoy learning and I enjoy teaching. I have been both a student in online/remote learning and have had to give remote presentations via ZOOM & webex.

1. How do you predict this course might be valuable to you?
I believe that I will experience new and exciting platforms that I had not tested out/knew about before, while also determining their usefulness towards the curriculum that I will teach. I think this will also prepare me for the new academic year, which will certainly be full of excitement, students and experimentation with technology!

2. What are your intentions/goals for your learning in this course?
My end goal is to be able to take more risks in my teaching by experimenting with new technology/apps and construct learning objectives with said technology. Since I teach Literacy, I feel that is extremely important for me to be able to teach students not only textual and visual lit, but also digital. I also feel that I will be able to better relate to my students, by exploring how social media, apps and technology can be useful to their learning.

I look forward to learning and growing as an educator through this course! :)

Module 1 Assignment 3 Pddlet Response.

Hello, my name is Kelly Thomas. This course will be valuable to me because I have had no experience designing courses or teaching online. I have taken courses online through the university though. I am working for the prison system, so this means our residents have no contact via the internet. With the past year being so scattered and hectic, I think having the ability to connect to students via an intranet could have been helpful to our instructors. I look forward to learning about the newest platforms.  My intentions are to build a toolbox of skills and ideas that can be developed into a useable form for the guidance department, whether it is inside or outside the prison walls.

I did not teach during last year, but anticipate that I will be back in the classroom within a year. I expect that districts interviewing me will want me to be able to speak to my thoughts regarding remote learning. It would be prudent for me to establish a well rounded sense of how these experiences have played out for other educators so that I can anticipate the needs of my local community, should we return to remote learning again in the future.
2. My goal is to get familiar with what has worked/not worked for those who have first hand knowledge. I imagine that these experiences will generate a lot of insightful reflection that will help me take a best practices approach to my own instructional habits and goals. Not knowing if I will be teaching whole class or small group ,I can benefit from hearing the variety of responses from people in differing positions; it will give me a flexible sense of where my focus should be once I am assigned a role in the schools again.

Hello, My name is Michelle Stover, and I enjoy a good padlet.

1. How do you predict this course might be valuable to you?

I am going into my second year as teacher, and I am hoping this course will help me come up with more ideas and strategies for my classroom, along with professional connections.I also maybe able to find new uses for tools I already use in the classroom, or find new tools to use.
2. What are your intentions/goals for your learning in this course?

My first year teaching was this past year and it was obviously not and ideal, I am hoping this course may be a good bridge from the hybrid/remote/concurrent model we face this year to a in-person set up. Also, hoping to learn more about utilizing technology better in my classroom.

* Hello all! My name is Wendy Hudson and I am a 3rd & 4th Grade Math Teacher and a 4th Grade Homeroom Teacher. I will be entering my 24th year of teaching for the 2021-2022 school year. I am hopeful that this course will allow me to be more comfortable with technology in my classroom. My students were able to easily adapt during remote learning and I feel that being a teacher for so long, I am "set in my ways" and I would like to be able to utilize new modes of teaching - technology included. I hope to be able to stay up to date with new advances in the technology platforms and integrate them into my daily lesson planning.

What are your intentions/goals for your learning in the course?
* My goal for the course is to learn. I am a teacher, we are all teachers (educators). If I am going to continue to be a successful teacher I must learn myself. I am excited to find new ways to reach my students, and to help engage them in subjects that they may not necessarily enjoy as much. Hearing from other professionals in the field is an added bonus!

How do you predict this course might be valuable to you?
I am very excited to learn new ways to engage my students while teaching remotely. I am hopeful that we will not be remote next year, but I learned that keeping a remote portion to my classroom allowed for absent students to remain on track even when they missed a few days. Any thing that helps me to better serve my students is extreme valuable!

What are your intentions/goals for your learning in this course? My goal for this course are to find effective and collaborative ways to engage students online that I can translate back into my classroom.

Hello everyone! My name is Kira Brewster and I am a Reading Specialist for middle school and high school students. My hopes for this course is to widen my knowledge of technology in the classroom, specifically in the area of Reading. We live in a digital age and keeping up with the up-and-coming technology, keeps teaching and learning current. I am excited to learn from the other educators in this class. Hearing from teachers in other districts, from around the state, will spark ideas and new practices for my own classroom. Learning from each other is just as valuable as learning from the professor.

Hi  my name is Pamala Atkinson and I believe this course will help me to feel more comfortable with technology and on-line learning/teaching. I have a need to learn more avenues to reach my students and to keep them engaged. I also would like to enrich my toolbox to help my students develop a love for learning. I want to be a well rounded teacher for the 21st century. I follow the old saying "you can never gain enough wisdom or knowledge; therefore you can never stop learning!" I have followed this my entire life and know you always need to improve yourself, your lessons and your methods for teaching.

Hi my name is Matthew Harris. This course will be valuable to me, because I am always looking to learn new avenues in technology integration into education. I am currently a HS math teacher, but have a strong desire to become a Tech Integration Specialist one day. So this course will give me valuable information in that pursuit. My goals for this course is to learn more ways to become a better educator in the 21st century and help students become more comfortable with using technology. Truthfully I want to pad my resume to help with my pursuit of becoming at Tech Integration Specialist.

Good afternoon everyone, my name is Theo Tufts, and I am an assistant principal of a middle school. I believe this course will be valuable to me because for the last 4 years my role has gone from teaching to administration, and I have not had as many opportunities to get back into the classroom and teach. If in the future we need to return to remote learning, the concepts and collaboration in this course will prove to be very useful. My goal through a coaching model is to apply the elements of effective online pedagogy to my teacher evaluations and help to instill  more engaging instruction and improved teacher performance

Hi everyone, I am Mary Ellen and I am certified as a guidance counselor and school social worker. I oversee child safety implementation and assist with interventions in the NH Catholic Schools. I am taking this course because, while I know a lot about teaching adults in an online environment, I am not that familiar with best practices for teaching K-12 students. I am hoping to learn ways to create engaging, guidance-related curricula for the online environment.
