Wow… what an unbelievably amazing 12 weeks. I can’t believe the insight we have had into multiple forms of technology I have never had the chance to utilise such as istopmotion and active inspire. I can confidently say I am impressed with what I have learned and am able to take away with me. This module has developed our strengths and weaknesses as individuals. We were all able to bring something to digital technologies. I have enjoyed watching everyone improve over the journey and will miss coming to the mac lab every Tuesday morning! Surprisingly enough. This module has taught me
- Not everyone is born “digitally native” but we can strive to become this.
- Planning is key! However, we all make mistakes and that’s okay but most importantly we need to learn from our errors.
- Teamwork makes the dreamwork! I have thoroughly enjoyed working alongside my peers every step of the way to support my journey and would not have got through it without them.
After this module, I am keen to keep up to date with current initiatives implemented in schools. I will continue to read to keep up to date with my knowledge as we are the future teachers of this generation and they are depending on us! I am keen to become a teacher meeting the (Scottish government 2016) requirements to be successful in the modern classroom.
