This module has shown me various apps and websites that can be used to engage and educate my students. Learning about various strategies and various forms of technology out there helped me to think of ways to enhance the learning experience for my students, especially while learning online.
I will probably suggest using ChatGPT as another tool to use to study with.
I have learned that as time goes on students will use AI to do most of there homework and classwork
In discussing the topic of AI in the classrooms with our Instructors, one of them brought up a great point. There was a time when calculators were considered "cheating" and were frowned upon. AI is the new "calculator" for this day and age.
This appears to be a repeat question. Regardless the technology offered now is so very convenient for Instructors and students. If your sick you can still participate and get things completed. IF you have car or transportation issues its not a problem, stay at home and do your work. This is the greatest thing ever!
You can use it from home which is of great convenience. It also saves you money on gas and car repairs.
The vocabulary presented in the module was helpful. I intend to practice using it when I am speaking to my students so that I can become more fluent in technology language. Using technology helps to differentiate the content to reach learners and increase learning.
It is essential to mold ourselves to the newer methods if there is any chance of challenging students in an effective manner.
It is an unending balance act of adopting online learning and also encouraging in-person instruction as it the answer is never going to be definitively one or the other.
Technological advancements have made it necessary to adapt to new ways of approaching information and delivery therein. What is new to us, may be the new normal to incoming students and thus, makes it to where we, the intructors, must adapt.
