Course Reflection

When I changed my degree plan to Educational Leadership in Technology from Educational Administration, I did so because I was getting the hands on administrative experience already; I was hoping to add a variety of technology tools to my tool bag. I have learned that they are integrated, and I will be able to step up my campus on the use of technology by incorporating and sharing ideas I have learned in this course. I am primarily interested in the collaboration tools, which I now know are referred to as web 2.0 tools.
The difference between others in this course and myself, it seems, is that technology is not my main job at school. I function as the Instructional Specialist, and if anything has hindered my acquisition of material in this course, it has been a lack of time and prior knowledge of these tools.
It appears to come so easy for everyone else in the course, and I work hard to wrap my brain around much of the readings. I have learned however, that we have much work to do in our district in order to connect the chasm differences of opinions that exists between campuses and the district technology department.
