EDLD+5363+Final+Assessment+Course+Reflection

Beginning the Multimedia and Video Technology course, I was anticipating learning more about the use of Multimedia in the classroom and using video technology. Through the activities that I completed I did learn uses of multimedia and video technology and could see the practical uses of it in the classroom. As with any technology, if you do not feel comfortable using it then it is less likely that you will implement it into the classroom. It was also a learning experience to complete the PSA with a group of students that would never meet face to face. The dynamics of the group and how each person took over a section of the assignment that would highlight their strengths was amazing. The project came together with only a few minor problems. There were some formatting problems getting video from a shared video site. Fortunately, I had resources that I could go to for help. This experience has taught me to be resourceful. I was a little apprehensive about the project and working with people that I would not see face to face but learned that it can work. It makes me even more excited about sharing these new skills with other teachers so that they can use it in their classrooms.
