Gotta say goodbye for the summer

As the school year comes to a close, I took a look at my past posts. I never thought I would enjoy writing a blog as much as I do, especially a blog about my classroom and how I incorporate technology in the classroom.

If I had to sum up this experience I would say it has made me more reflective on how I use technology in the classroom. It has also pushed me to look for new ways to use technology. Let's face it, if I don't try something new then I have nothing to write about.  My goal, going forward, is to continue to push forward with technology.  I have already asked to pilot a program next school year using e-portfolio's.  My coordinator loves the idea and is going to see if we can get funding.

I am also writing a Java program to help me calculate final averages for my classes. I teach 3 different preps and they each have different requirements. If I am successful I hope to share it with my colleagues.

So there is still much for me to learn and to explore.  However, as the days get longer, my mind drifts to vacation and the stack of books I want to read before it all starts up again. But stay tuned, I'll be back in September with more on the English Classroom 2.0. Until then I leave the blog sealed with a kiss.
