Wow! Teaching with Technology was a VERY interesting and educational course. In this course, we had to collaborate with our learning teams of 6 or more. John Thomas was our team leader and he and Jessica Shopoff became our main go-to people when we were working on our group plan. We never had any trouble with anyone not pulling their part in our project and seemed that everyone did their fair share of the work. We made a technology plan for a scenario and worked together to plan out a lesson that taught second grade students about the water cycle utilizing technology. Our specific lesson was for students with various abilities and disabilities. The students were to create a photo story in groups of three. We had each set of students be responsible for certain jobs in this project. This course and project taught me how to work with others, even though we were not even in the same town. We met in Google chat and worked mostly with Google Docs. I found Google Docs very interesting and was so intrigued with it, that I went to school and shared it with my team. We have been using Google Docs for our lesson plans ever since. It is much easier than all those dreaded emails every week. We also experimented with the UDL Lesson Builder and Book Builder. This was beneficial because it would be a good resource to share with teachers. I can see teachers using UDL book builder for their students by even letting students create their own books. (Standard 2) Throughout this course, we had to reflect on our learning experiences and readings on our Wiki. I remember that this class was especially difficult because of the group work, but also one of the most rewarding. I felt accomplished and felt that I had learned much from this course. Our team leader in our group created a team website and we posted all of our work up on this website. You can visit it at [|**http://sites.google.com/site/teachingwithtechnologywork/home**]

All in all, I felt this course would benefit my future plans as a technology facilitator in many ways. It gave me chances to experience different types of technology and gave me a chance for hands on experience. I did not have any concerns or anything that really puzzled me throughout this course.
