Reflections This program has helped me gain an in-depth understanding of technology and how it can be used in unlimited ways to improve not only students’ educational experiences but also teachers’ instructional experiences. I feel that I have grown tremendously through this program, not only in my own teaching practices, but also by becoming more extrinsic in my thinking. Through the content of this program I have developed a sense of “paying it forward” by wanting to share my knowledge with others. Upon completion of this program I would like to offer professional development training sessions for the staff at my school so that they, too, can fully reap the benefits of a technology-efficient classroom.
