Chatting with my class mates and professor on like was not something I pictured my self doing, so when I went through it I had mix feeling about it. I did not know what to expect but it ended being a great experience over all. It had it downs with the slow network and kicking us out but the conversations moved on.
Web 2.0 was something I've used without knowing what it was called. Learning about it was very interesting. There are many tools I use to collaborate with coworkers. One of my favorites is Dropbox. This tool allows us to collaborate and edit documents that are written for our classroom like lesson plans, assessments, and many other things. I love the way technology has made it easy for all of to communicate and collaborate. Google documents is another tool I use a lot with my colleges and students.
The video we so on Youtube about technology was very eyeopening. We don't really think about how technology affects the people around the world. Living in the US is a wonderful thing because we have so many resources that we take advantage of. We own smart phones and computers that the cost can support a whole family in a third world country for a year, but we don't put much thought to it. The video also cautions us towards the ethical use of technology and how it can get out of hand if we don't use it properly.
