E-Learning; Blog Post One
Picture Four |
I chose the topic E-Learning,
this encompasses online classes, distance learning, and instructional media.
I'm interested in this subject because it’s an issue in the field of education
that is gaining importance and it will only continue to become more and more
prevalent in the classroom. I have taken a couple of online classes, for various reasons, from just trying to get another check on my list to graduate,
even my counselor agreed that it was a waste of time to take the class in a
physical classroom. I also took an online class because I believed it was the
smarter choice, and it would be set at a better pace for me, so I would be able
to get more out of the class while keeping up more easily. I hope to gain more
knowledge from all sides of online learning, from teachers to those who are
creating the classes to the students of all ages experiencing this surge of
technology in the classroom. I am also excited to learn more about
instructional media and technology because in my experience as a student, I did
not get to interact with a lot of technology. I want to learn more about the pros
and cons of different instructional media. This project will help me in the
near future as a student, because I will know more about online classes, and it
will help me make future decisions about classes to take, and different media I
can use when doing assignments like group projects and presentations. Also, in
the more distant future when (hopefully!!) I am a teacher in a classroom; I
will have more knowledge about how to successfully incorporate media into my
lesson plans, and teaching techniques.
