Last Class

I should have used Nvu for the midterm. It really didn’t make much sense for me to learn Nvu and then take the midterm using html. I should have taken the test with what I had been learning. I know after this course I will never use html again, I will use webpage software and that is what will be most beneficial to my students and I. That is what this whole masters program is about, making me a better teacher with technology, learning tools that will enhance the learning experience for my students. I can see the benefit of understanding html, which I do, but knowing exactly where to place the tags is an obstacle I just don't have the time to tackle right now. It causes too much frustration, especially when I know there is an easier way.

This course should be offer earlier in the program. It is a good course and I would love to have done this with my students this year. I could have done so much with them and this knowledge. Now I am sending them off to high school without this knowledge. Also this is such a busy time of school to be learning this. More technical knowledge at the beginning of this masters program would be very beneficial to all of us. I know I will tackle it with the jr. high early on in the school year.
