My Tec Class Reflection

Sandra Candelas

I knew that I was going to learn about technology, it was a little overwhelming at times to keep up with the fast pace of some of the google applications as they were completely new to me. I did know about google drive and now I know how to use it more effectively and understand it a little more. We learned how to create educational videos using applications such as google classroom, and create educational videos using different applications also. Screencasting and We video were some of my favorite. They are different though, as screencasting is more for classroom education and presentations. The We video is an app that is used to just inform or create a video, not really interactive. I did always wondered how the professors in my school did some of their teachings and have found how to use the technology they use. Podcasting is another resource that I did not understand. I wondered how it worked and if it were similar to a radio. Know I know that it is an online type of radio and it can be accessed anywhere. There are all sorts of free podcasts and educational even. I am hoping that I can keep learning technology as a teacher and that my district utilizes the same type of resources as it is an essential part of life since our society is basically technology.

I think having some kind of positive experience notebook is a great way of creating positive experiences everyday. In order to look at life in positive ways, one should remember even the smallest of positives through out the day because life is not all good or bad, there is always a gray area. Like the yin and the yang . When life seems all dark, there is always something positive in it and when there is all positivity, there is always something negative. I really liked on of the activities that Ms. Paczkowski, the special education teacher, posted for her students on twitter. She had her students write the name of another student or pick the name of another student and write why they are such an awesome person . Hopefully, the teacher gives them a name and not that they have to pick a person because this can skip students. Nice way to create positive feelings and positive experiences for the day and self-esteem.

My We Video

My We Video I really enjoyed making the We Video for my Tec Class. I learned a lot about technology and I hope that the schools I work to implement this type of style. I will also keep in touch with tec and explore different education avenues for students. I think knowledgeability in tec is extremely important as this is our new world. Making my video took a while but I got in touch with my creativity. I would leave it alone come back and think about what else to implement, how I was going to make my message stand out the most and look attractive. I had my son involved and he had a taste of what an actor goes through. At first, he was acting normal when I asked to make a video clip but the moment I had said that I was putting it on youtube, he started to laugh with every take. I had to really act like a director and had many, many takes. I think this project was the most enjoyable throughout my whole schooling. At the moment I have a smile on my face. :)) I always wan

My Learning Style

Visuals I have at least four learning styles, I learn visually, auditory, hands-on and I am introverted. I like to read materials over if I don't comprehend them, and I will also look at videos that help me learn. There are times that I have to look at different videos to understand content and it is satisfying when I find the right professor who explains materials in an understandable way. The content on the video, the way the instructor explains, and whether the student captures content, varies individually. When visuals are not enough, I have to do it or practice it by hand. For example, in one of my anatomy classes, The pictures on the book on skin cells, and different types of tissues were not clear enough, I had to see it through a real microscope. I also had asked the professor what I was looking at? The cells were different and I wanted to know the difference between them and how to distinguish the nucleus in each of the cells. I can also
