‍ ‍ 2 changes in your teaching to reach all learners in the Digital Age =====

‍ ‍ 1 BIG idea to implement “on Monday”
__**New technolgies to try for next year:**__ - Prezi's - Wiki - space - Wordle to review - edmodo -podcasts -watchknow - More daily debates - try to infuse technology, perhaps a wiki?

__**4 things to share**__ -the link to this wikispace and the other UDL blog to allow others to see all of the thing we have done in this class -[] to allow others to see even more great ideas and resources! - the "historical twitter" link that Jon shared with me (on the bottom of this page) - the effectiveness of podcasts in the classroom

__**3 principles**__ Representation Expression Engagement

__**2 Changes**__ More blogs/wiki's to try to get students to express their opinions about current events/government issues More multi-media presentation - hopefully student created!

__**1 Big Idea**__ Start small and just find a way to use ANY technology in the classroom. This is how students learn now, and I must do a better job of incoporating more and more. Its ok to experiment and see what works well and what doesn't, but I need to try!!!

Now that class has come to an end, I feel a bit overwhelmed, but at the same time hopeful that some of the new websites and strategies can be used to improve my teaching and thus my student performence. I also feel that I took this class at the right time, with summer vacation starting this week I will at least have a bit of time to perhaps further explore some of the things we did and revise/edit some of my previous lessons. I also hope that between now and the start of school in the fall that the "powers that be" come to their senses and allow some use of websites that are currently blocked (xtranormal, youtube, image searches, etc)
