• Were you successful in carrying out the course assignments? If not, what prevented or discouraged you?

I was very successful in carrying out the course assignments. I really feel that this was so successful for me because I had many resources to learn more information from. Much was learned from the class but also from the technology specialist at my school and other friends in my district that deal with technology tools in the classroom. They had great ideas and guided me through many questions and projects I had to complete. It is very helpful when you have someone to guide you through the process to make you feel comfortable doing it alone without any one there to help. Teachers tend to not try things they are unsure about and technology seems to certainly be one of these problems. One of the obstacles however was the lack of knowledge I had dealing with many different technology tools. I was not aware of the many uses and the simplicity there tools brought to their users.
