Here is the link to my school library website. http:\/\/www.hre.sd23.bc.ca\/ProgramsServices\/Library\/Pages\/default.aspx<\/a>. \u00a0I have added all the information for this course under the Inquiry Based Learning tab on the bottom left hand side.\u00a0 As I described yesterday, some thing have worked well, and some not so well but I really do look at this as a work in progress.\u00a0 When we get back to school and I use these resources, I will see what works and what does not and adjust as necessary.\u00a0 As with technology, my project will be ever changing to meet the needs of the users.<\/p>\n

This project has been a culmination of a journey in confidence for me over the last three weeks.\u00a0 When we first began, I felt that I was not very proficient with technology. I still am probably not very proficient with technology as compared to others in this class but what I have gained is the confidence to give things a try.\u00a0 This can be seen in the variety of thing that I attempted to add to my website, a Pearltree, a blog, embedded video (I even tried to follow online instructions but can’t find the buttons that I have been asked to find.\u00a0 Obviously this online searching can’t take the place of face to face question and answer time), and a Shelfari Widget.\u00a0 I would not have even tried such things three and a half weeks ago.<\/p>\n

We tried a great many things this course and learned about many others.\u00a0 I think that as I am designing lessons, units and learning experiences, I will now think to what type of technology might supplement our objectives.\u00a0 I look forward to seeing some of these resources put into practice in my teaching practice this year.<\/p>\n

The other important thing that I have learned is that it is OK to ask. Often I think that either I should know something already or that it is too much trouble for others to help me but if everyone felt like that, nothing new would ever get done.\u00a0 I have learned that there is a huge network of people willing to take a moment to help if I just ask.\u00a0 Not only with my teaching colleagues, but I have also been in contact with the help desk at my district this week and they have been more than helpful.\u00a0 I suppose it all goes back to me having a lack of confidence in my abilities and needing to build up the confidence to take risks even if I am not completely successful.\u00a0 Thanks for a great three weeks of expanding my horizons and building my confidence.<\/p>\n
