Reflection

           I have really enjoyed implementing the GAME plan during this class.  I had used the digital resources and tools that we learned about, but actually using the NET-S standards and content standards in this class was helpful in creating a lesson that was truly engaging and beneficial to my students. The GAME plan has probably made me feel more secure in implementing some of these lessons. My confidence is higher and I have seen the benefit of this within my classroom. Right now I would not modify the plan, I will just keep using it the way that I have been.

            The immediate adjustment that I plan on making in my classroom is to continue using social media to stay in contact with parents, to continue using digital storytelling across all subject areas, and to continue using problem-based learning. I am lucky to work in a district where my students have their own laptops and we have very good internet. I am able to use the technology in many different ways.

            Overall, this class has helped me better understand the NET-S, give me better ways to integrate the technology that I have, and help me practice digital storytelling, which was something I had not used very often. I found this class to be very beneficial and quite enjoyable.
