Technology shows a great impact on the our modren life style. We cannot even imagine our daily routine without technology. We as a teacher needs to be very careful about the use of technology. I find it as my responsibility to prepare my students and help them to explore new technology, but its only possible if I find myself comfortable with it. A teacher always taken as subject matter expert. I knew that I an not very efficient in that field, but I also believe that we can learn any skill with practice. Using technology is not an automatic skill, the more and more time you spend on it you will be in love with it. We have to create our interest in it.

                   From last two weeks, we were creating our own websites for our future classroom. As I mentioned earlier, I am not expert in the  use of technology. I Knew that it is not going to be easy for me. But my professor showed me lots of ideas and I Spent few nights to figure it out. While working on it I realise it will be a great help for my future classroom. This website will help me to organize my stuff at one place. I can influence my students not only in the classroom but also outside the school too.

                      I always find parents as a great source in child overall development. We can contact each other regular basis. I can put my presentations, students best work, and excellent resouces on it, so anybody can find it easily.  There are still lots of things I still need to learn in technology. May be that's why we call ourself life long learner. The most important thing is, learning always shows better result when you share it with other.

Last week we discussed abuot 'How to improve high level thinking of our students' in my course 'Evaluation and Assessment'. I find it really thought provoking, what a teacher need to do to make her students think beyond the obvious? How they can connect themselves to that particular situation? I also atteneded a PD last week "Real World Teaching", and I found my answer there. Then I realise our teaching should not only limited to our text books, but we should connect our students to the real world. Teacher should always think that how could we teach our students in a best way?  The answer is definetly not by reading books only but with 'Hand on Activities". Let them learn by doing things in science and social tudies.
For ELA, teacher should not ask only recalling question, the best choice is to use 'Bloom Taxonomy' to prepare questions. I know that asking Questions is not an automatic skill, we have to prepare ourself for it, for first few years teacher can prepare questions in advance, write down them on the sticky notes and ask students on appropriate time. To develop their high level of thinking is by coonecting them with ICT. Ask them to expess their views on blogs.It will be hard for first few years. But at last it will pay us worth.
 I myself was very uncomfortable in writing blogs in the begning. But gradually it is improving my confidence and incouraging me to use techology in my teaching. Even though i am finding lots of difficulties in technology because i wa not use to it,but i am really want to thank my teachers and friends for their help. I am looking forward to learn more and more technology in my classroom, which will be very helpful for me and my students in future.
