My favorite Web 2.0 tool from yesterdays class was Today's Meet. I like this tool because I do a lot of professional development where I ask, "What do you hope to get out of this session?" I usually have to write responses on a large post-it page and this can be time consuming. With Today's Meet, I can ask each participant to type in what they hope to get out of the session. This process would be more efficient. I feel that I am keeping up with technology. I feel this is important because the world we live in today is filled with technology. We must keep up so that we can prepare our students to be successful in the 21st Century. I don't have students right now, but I know that they are not afraid of technology it is a way of life for them. I love technology. It is hard to keep up because there is always something new. My goal is to learn as much as I can and pass this information to teachers and literacy coaches to help make their lessons more engaging. I don't have any questions at this time. I would really like to touch on digital storytelling.
