our unit

If I could redo the unit I would want to try to make sure that we all had groups that had schedules that could work together. We had a lot of trouble getting together and meeting to get things accomplished. In the end it was as if we worked individually and spoke to each other just to check up. It was very frustrating try to incorporate different programs such as smart board into our lessons when I don't know how to use most of the programs. It's hard to incorporate a program that you don't know much about.

elluminate

I was a little confused by the elluminate session. I wasn't sure if I could see myself using this tool in the future. I felt lost a lot of the time because of the chaos of everything going on. There would be times I would try to hit the check button or raise my hand and think I would do it but it wouldn't be clicked. I was thinking that maybe you could conduct some sort of research with students. Instructing them how to find certain resources online or websites they can use to find resources. I also felt at times that someone would write something and then right after another student would write over it. The session could have been more effective if it was a smaller group instead of a full class. It is a nice tool to use at times but I'm not sure if I could see myself using it in the classroom.
