This course has opened up the various ways technology can be introduced to a culinary arts program. From simulations and virtual reality to using platforms to market the program by making videos of the courses and dishes prepared, I also like the instant feedback that can be provided through the introduction of technology. The simulations would allow for great insight into the real world of owning and operating a business in the hospitality sector.
I have had questions about fair use and copyright law in the resources I use. This module helped me understand that a bit better. It also offered more resources to explore!
Very informative - lots of choices to incorporate technology into the classroom and this course increased my understanding of many methods while introducing new methods that were previously unfamiliar to me.
In this module I met the International Society for Technology in Education (ITSE) and I think it is a great contribution for those of us who dedicate ourselves to the study of educational technology.
I learned about all the different avenues for technological communication with students from social media to mainstream platforms.
This is an interesting unit in learning about the availability of the technology. The resources identified will definitely help to deliver content to my students. Being of a different generation, although technology has been a huge part just not to the extent of the younger generation, I do understand the importance of utilizing these resources to help not only keep students engaged but to help them get the full benefit of the subject being taught.
I have learned that there are a multitude of tools at my disposal to keep students engage in and out of the classroom. I plan to implement the use of quizstar to create interactive quizzes.
Comment on Thomas McNamara's post: Same. And now that I better understand "Technical Terminology" I feel more confident in my ability to incorporate technology into my classroom.
I have learned that there is a whole network outside of the classroom that I can utilize.
The use of copyright law isnt something that I will be concerned with because we are only using the data for research purposes.
This module was very helpful. I am going to use some of the resources to create quizzes and games for my classes. Also, the information on fair use and copy right law was good information.
How to incorporate online resources to traditional classes
This section offered many useful resources I can incorporate into my classroom!
This section contained a lot of online resources. I particularly found the copyright laws resources helpful.
There are different resources available to educators to assist in student learning. There are also leniencies allowed in copyright for educators that allow us to share beneficial information with students.
Technology is great to engage students when used properly and appropriately.
This course has provided insight into the various ways technology can be implemented in the classroom to foster student learning and engagement.
Lots of helpful technology out there to help with the classroom now a days. Also so many ways to stay connected with the different media platforms. Makes you really think about how the classroom have evolved and changed.
Lots of technolgy....lots of opportunities to use it for learning
There are many resources available to educators, the challenge is to find and be able to use the resources efficiently. I recently used Cengage which had the text, videos, review materials and assessments all conveniently packaged online.
