EDUC-6715I-3 New and Emerging Technologies Reflection

As the course has come to a close, I have taken everything that I have learned about new and emerging technologies as a top priority in the technology department. This course had so much to offer and learn about, I was very impressed as I am looking back and reflecting. The technologies that I didn’t know about and learned about are amazing. The learning activity in week 6 and 7 was an activity that was interesting to me because it gave me the opportunity to be able to develop a lesson/activity in the technology department to help my students become more knowledgeable with technology and learn at the same time. The completed assignment helped me to demonstrate learning in this course because it gave me the opportunity to be able to develop an emerging technology that maybe one day will be out on the market in the technology world and really be a part of my students learning.
I would like to continue to research and find some of the digital games available for teachers. Digital games provide students with an engaging and motivating way to both learn and practice a variety of skills.
This assignment has given me an opportunity to integrate new technology in place of old, to teach meaningful lessons that my students will enjoy and embrace. I look forward to learning and creating new technologies that will allow for the best possible learning environments for my students. I am excited to try new emerging technologies and also use technologies that have already emerged in the future with my students.
I also look forward to using and sharing emerged and emerging technologies with colleagues and others interested in learning new evolving 21st century technologies. The future of our students and of our classrooms will be based around technology. I am glad that I am able to be a part of learning it and making it a part of our everyday learners so that they can take it into their future with them!
