EDLD 5363 Week 2 Web Conference Reflection

One thing I liked about this web-conference is how Dr. Abernathy focused on the importance of us using multiple softwares and technologies so we are prepared and able to be facilitators for every teacher on our campuses.  This refocused me to remember that my goal in this program is to not only prepare myself to be able to create technology integration projects with my students but to also be prepared to assist all other teachers on my campus.  This program has done a very good job of exposing us to numerous softwares and especially freeware.  I like that the program requires us to learn and use freeware softwares, ironically our district is more than happy to provide technology tools but not the software needed to make properly use these tools.  I also learned in this conference more about the week 3 through week 5 PSA assignment.  I feel less anxious about this upcoming project now and am excited to see what my group decides to make a PSA about. I am still anxious about creating a video with my group, in my experience creating videos are extremely difficult and time consuming, I feel that adding the group element as well as us meeting online and not in person will add a difficult element to the project.
