Week 6 Blog Entry GAME Plan
So far I have learned a lot about the Smart Board and how to work more effectively with colleagues and students. I have been working with all of the SmartBoards in my department by making a common “gallery” in which I have put all of the pertinent information to my department so that things are easily accessible to everyone. This is especially important because we do not always teach in the same rooms. I am working more on implementing more technology into my everyday lessons. Based on the NETS-T, I would like to bring in more types of technology into my classroom. I have recently begun working with the TI-Nspire which is a new piece of technology in which I got a class set of. I want my students to feel comfortable with using new technology, but it is hard for me to work with something that I am not comfortable with. I plan on trying to get to some conferences about the TI-NSpire to hopefully make myself more comfortable. The learning approach that I will try next time to improve my learning is to set reasonable goals and make sure that I am setting goals that are attainable in the amount of time. I also want to restrict my goals into something that is more precise than my original goals.

Anna, it sounds like you have met your goal with Smartboard technology and your department should be thanking you. It can be so difficult to get someone to take the lead or inciative in a department, but once someone does, things usually starts to move--others will jump in and get involved. You are going to have such a positive impact on not just your students, but other students as well. Great job.
Anna:
Good job on meeting the GAME plan goal regarding the SmartBoard. When one person takes charge and starts the process of incorporating technology others tend to follow quickly because they see its benefits.
