I believe no matter what age you are you always have something to learn. To implement good habits is very crucial. I always try to begin everything with the end and reason in mind. This is easy for me because I have a hard time doing something unless I know what my goal. I know very well that my education is my own responsibility and I have to earn it. If I do poorly, nine times out of ten it is my own fault.No one is checking up to make sure I am doing my homework but it is my responsibility. I learned very quickly that if you go into a class thinking how awful it is you will not do as well as if you walked in with a positive attitude. This is the same with anything you do, have a positive attitude and confidence that you can do anything. If you do this, you will be more successful. As a learner or as a teacher you know how you or your students learn most effectively. Always add your learning tool box, discover effective ways to accomplish a task or to learn new material. Technology is advancing faster than I can keep up. Anytime a new piece of technology comes out that can help me to improve, I try my hardest to get my hands on it. For example, I always hate reading a book for enjoyment but I recently purchased an iPad. With my new iPad I have read two novels in no time. Problems are a challenge we have to overcome and I have no problem helping someone else through the same thing I went through or teaching someone something I know. In everything I do I try to have fun and enjoy myself, there is nothing wrong with a little play with your work!
I had no problems setting up my blog. It is also very familiar to me because I have blogged many times.
I love how you said that no matter what age you are, you always have something to learn. I whole heartedly believe this. I plan on learning as much as I can whenever I can. I will never feel as if I have learned enough.
ReplyDeleteI read on my iPad too!! It's really convenient. We'll be able to use them in our future classrooms too.
ReplyDeleteI understand about technology. I am horrible with it but I am willing to learn how to use is and use it to my advantage. I believe it can really help in the classroom also. For example instead of the basic chalk/white board and children using that, we now have SmartBoards that we can create games and fun activities for them to participate in to learn. It allows them to get involved and have fun learning. Your not really gonna learn much if your not interested in it.
