Finally, my final blog posting- EDUC5163 ...what would you write?

Well, although I am somewhat sad that this is technical my 'final' blog posting - I am very excited to be at the end of my academic journey in my M.Ed degee. However, I do plan on continuing to contribute to all of my blogs because I would never want to stop being a life long learner. 

Both assistive tech  (5163 & 5173) courses were  learning curves for me, but luckily I was able to collaborate with great people to learn and to present my ideas on the technology and the research surrounding reading processes, writing processes, disabilities and their supportive tools.

The blog presentations today were awesome.  Using Elluminate Live to be able to access my classmates work supports my reading and writing process! :) I really enjoyed watching every one's hard work being presented.  These blogs are not only blogs, they represent teacher experiences, resources and research from various grade levels and classroom experiences. 

I've learned so many things in Elluminate  -  I can't wait to try out on the faculty and students: the timer, the webcam, and it's ability for the ccollaboration of work.  Thank you once again to all of my fellow classmates! It's been quite a journey..and out of all my M.Ed courses, Assistive Tech courses are the two courses that will contribute the most to my career and teaching journey.
