Attendance at the PETE&C Conference in Hershey supplied me with a vast amount of valuable information. I plan to use Augmented Reality beginning with QR codes in my library/ classroom. I am so excited the they are bringing back the Keystones. It has been awhile since I have been active with technology due to job changes.

Integration of Technology

It is hard to believe that more than a month has passed and I have not written about my newfound experiences with technology and the various integrations and new web 2.0 tools.

An Awesome learning experience

The creation of this blog and so forth have been an awesome learning experience. I try to stay on top but there is so much that I learned and so many ways I will be able to use what I learned.

My favorite discoveries on this learning journey were finding LibraryThing and using it, learning about tagging and Del.icio.us (social bookmarking site), On-Line Image Generator, including FD Toys, Comic Strip Generator, Custom Signs Generator, Image Chef, and Generator Blog and especially creating my own blog and wiki that I plan to continue. I plan to continue learning and using what I had the opportunity to find and explore.
Web 2.0 has affected my lifelong learning goals in a very positive way, I have become more aware of what is available to teach with and use in the classroom.
An unexpected outcome of this program would be the fact that I blog, journaling was not something I enjoyed doing before and I was not open to allowing others to know what I was thinking or read what I was learning. I have found the reflection is wonderful. The Web 2.0 was awesome and a wonderful learning experience.

eBooks and Audio eBooks

The Gutenberg Project available at World EBook Fair' site is really quit unbelievable. I was able to download Grimm's Fairy Tales by Jacob Grimm and Wilhelm Grimm and then explored the site - It was very interesting and offered a lot of reading for free and or for a minimal price. Poe, Edgar Allan (436) is something I think our English department would be very interested in. Possibly the use of Myths and Legends of Ancient Greece and Rome for our 6th and 7th grades, or A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens (1735) for our 8th grade. It seems that there would be so much information available for our reading classes. This is really interesting. eBooks and Audio eBooks
