Wow! What a journey. I have learnt so much in this course and am pleased to say that I finally made it. I was surprised to learn that I am able to use so many Web2 applications in my role as a teacher's aide. In particular Scootle Docs, Flickr, Delicious, Bubble Us and creating Wikis and Blogs are applications that I could use to support the creativity and analytical skills of a student. Web2 applications allow students to learn and express themselves in their own way, allowing them to be creative and imaginative. As an educator, creating technological learning environments which engage students will inevitably enhance their learning and mine. For example, Bloom's Taxonomy Thinking tasks can be related and added to different class wikis to help differentiate tasks and set learning outcomes.
I do believe that technology is a tool which can be used to help all educators achieve their goals. It is the future in teaching and learning styles and I have only just begun to discover its endless opportunities and hope to soon become proficient in many of the areas. Until then I must reflect continually to make progress in this challenging day and age.
