Reflection #8
For last weeks blog I watched a video on apps. Now, I know we have learned about a ton of different apps this semester, and I have been surprised to see how many apps I never even knew existed. However, after watching this session, I was amazed to learn about how many apps I have never heard of or seen before. I have no idea where they come from, or who makes them. Although I have not used all or many of these apps, I feel like they are all so very helpful. I have wondered, with how good our technology is, why these apps are so unknown. Maybe it is just because I don't play around too often or look. I just go straight to what I already know and I don't branch out very often. I think I just get comfortable with what I already know and don't want to waste the time to learn something knew. But, after seeing this session and how easy and helpful these apps are I think I will be much more willing to give these apps a shot. I mean, they are simple and seem like they would make life so much easier.

It is amazing how many different apps are out there and how if we wouldn't have watched a video on it or seen something on tv about it we would have never found it. Their are so many tools and apps out there that we can use.. we just have to find them.
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way Ashley! I am always surprised by the endless amount of apps that seem to be out there! It is hard to branch out beyond what we already know and what we are comfortable with. But I have learned this semester that although all these new technologies and apps seem intimidating, many of them in the end provide more simple and better ways for us to learn and teach.
