Week 5.2 Assignment

     I have gained knowledge on three technology topics.  The Live Binders, Flipped classrooms, and Google Drive.  I had heard of clouds to store data but never was I interested enough to look into how to accomplish this task.  Google Drive to me is very similar to Microsoft Office.  I was also impressed with the capability to create surveys. 

     A Flipped classroom is awesome to me.  I had seen it at a math workshop and was very excited about implementing it that following school year.  I had not done enough research and got bogged down with other things that it fell to the way side.

    The Live Binders were totally new to me when I first started the course. I viewed the videos and took notes so that I could remember some of the ideas that I had seen.  I think a substitute would be impressed that everything would be right at their fingertips with the click of a mouse.  It would also help me with organization and I would have access to my work at home.  I’m looking forward to using the new technology I have learned.

     My campus supervised log is coming together just fine.  I plan to work more on it this week that we have off before the students come back to school.  I’ve been going through my list and highlighting and writing myself notes about what I have left and how I am going to accomplish those activities.

     The Action Research makes me nervous.  I feel that I am behind where I should be at this point.  EDLD 5397 made it a reality and then after the class I slacked off again.  I have thoughts and paragraphs written but I have not written a rough draft.  I know that in the next week I have a lot to accomplish.
