I had no idea what I was getting myself into when decided to enroll in the Innovative Learning Program. Since then I feel I have grown leaps and bounds in my thinking, knowledge of technology, comfort and attitudes. Initially I felt uncomfortable interacting face to face with peers and instructors. As time progresses, I feel more at ease having direct contact and 1:1 meetings. So far, I am more intrigued with the idea of how I can expand my “creativity” aspect as a person, educator and as lifelong learner. My comfort level with the usage of technology keeps expanding week by week, I definitely have a long way to go before I can proclaim myself technology proficient. Overall, my attitude has changed in the way I used to view technology and its purpose in the classroom. I have more respect and admiration for the teachers who have made the jump into 21st century teaching skills and are implementing this skills in their classrooms. At this point in time, I feel challenged, inspired and supported by my professors and cohort. One semester down, a couple to go!!
