At fist I was a little stumped by the task. I thought about creating an app and through a few websites I realized that the way that I want to use the app could be very costly but I was able to make one that I could add to be weebly website. I thought this would make me happy, however I think I like the first app I made better.
I then started to think that this wasn't creative enough. So while my creative abilities are a little lacking due to time I came up with a concept of what I want to do. I am passionate about technology in education and communicating with my students in a way that engages them. I have a twitter that I share with my students and I decided to join Tumblr so that I could share photos that I like or that I have shared in class.
If time and technology permitted I wanted to design an interactive game for Social Studies.
Ultimately I was inspired to create a digital introduction assignment. I was trying to figure out what I would do if my classroom became paperless and I had to change my typical introduction assignment. So I decided that the best thing would be a digital introduction assignment. Students will have to use Glogster or Wordle to complete the assignment. In typical teacher fashion I have to make an example and do it first.
So here is my Glog:
