Assistive Technology Assignment

This assignment not only gave me tools and resources to use as a teacher but it also gave me real life experiences to relate to. We got to see what teachers do in the real classroom setting but then also decide what we would do ourselves. I think this will be incredibly beneficial because as we go through the education program, we will learn what is ideally perfect for each specific situation. This helped me to think and get out of the box, but as I learn my opinions and ideas will change. This should be used with all education majors because they need to know how to handle each and every situation that they may come across. There were also some tools used in this lesson that I was not familiar with and I know that I will use these in the future. Now I can experiment with these and begin to find the ones that are most resourceful for me. The lesson also gave opinions of teachers and made it more realistic and something that is common in every classroom. While working on this assignment, I also talked with other students to get their opinions on the issues. They had a lot of the same ideas but it also helped me to think more like a teacher. I adapted my opinions to fit the students and what was best for them. The standards that were used in this assignment were: 1. Students demonstrate creative thinking, construct knowledge, and develop innovative products and processes using technology.
