July 21 - Last Class!

I really enjoyed today's class, where everyone presented their writing blogs through the elluminate classroom. There was a wealth of useful information, websites, videos, gadgets and apps.

It is evident that everyone in our class put a lot of time and effort into creating these wonderful blogs. I'm glad we presented them the way we did - I really enjoy the online sessions!

I feel that I have learned so much from this course. I had never used an iPhone or iPod before coming into this class and now I feel quite comfortable with them. I think I will be trading in my BlackBerry in the very near future!

I've enjoyed exploring the various writing programs, particularly Kurzweil - it's very exciting when you think about the technology that is now available to help our struggling readers and writers.

Since I work with autistic and language-disordered students, I particularly liked exploring autism and speech language apps throughout this course. There were some great apps that I know my students would love!

I'm really glad that we got to examine the reading and writing process in detail. I have learned a lot from this and will keep all this new knowledge in mind when I begin working with my students in the fall.

Thank you for a wonderful course Barb, I have learned so much!
