My thoughts about class today

It is hard to believe how far we have come from the ways we educate one another. It seem like it was only yesterday when we used chalk boards, encyclopedias, and overheads to convey our message to our students. Hence, now days we have laptops and tablet computers, portable mobile devices and this little thing called the World Wide Web connecting us all. Yet, today in class we tap in on how the powerful the internet can be used in educating our youth. I had seen by using social networking tools such as Wiki spaces and Google Doc can be helpful in enhance collaborative learning and provides the learner with instance feedback. Which is sure fine receipted for dynamic learning and great lesson planning.
I never had the opportunity to use any of these tools this past school year. However, in my next teaching assignment I will be very resourceful in educating and implementing the use of Google Docs and Wiki spaces to my students and fellow colleagues. I true believe that the feature from each one tools would truly be game changer in the classroom.
