I found my first section of TPTE to be a challenging yet useful class for my future teaching career. TPTE taught me many useful technology skills that I feel every educator should have in their pocket when teaching. I believe the following projects completed in TPTE will prove to be the most useful when teaching in my future special education classroom: making a website, publishing a blog, making a digital story and, lastly, making a digital diagram using Inspiration.
Making a classroom website will help the parents of my students feel involved in their children's classroom and, therefore, is very useful. Publishing a blog proved to be educational to me as a future educator because this is how I will inform parents on my website of happenings in my classroom. Making a digital story proved to be extremely useful to me as a special educator because social stories are used daily in special education classrooms for behavioral issues. Digital stories could be used to make social stories for many behavioral issues in the classroom. Lastly, making a digital diagram is important when teaching students with disabilities because they, more than most students, need a visual when learning new information. Thus, digital diagrams will be helpful when teaching my future students new information in all academic subjects. All in all, TPTE will prove to be very useful when I begin my teaching career because of the many skills I learned while taking this class.
