Week 2 Reflections

I have really loved everything I've learned in this class. I am excited about the possibilities of using this technology in my own class. After I did my uen project (this week's assignment) I emailed my mom and she went on the site and clicked on every link, including the activities and even took her weather trip around the world. (I admit I hadn't even completed the activity... I only looked to see if it seemed fun and age appropriate.)  My children saw me working on the project and immediately asked if they could try the activities when I was done. That made me feel good about my work.  I was much happier at the speed at which I finished my assignment this week. The prior 2 assignments I spent at least 3-4 hours completing them. This week I worked more efficiently and had nearly the entire project done in class and then spent perhaps 1 hour more at home. I don't want to disappear in front of the computer working on homework anymore than I need to so I can give my children more attention.
