Computers in the classroom Part I with Brock U.

I have learned a lot of valuable, practical information from my instructors, webmates and my research. I would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in learning more about using the computer and technology in the classroom. "A little knowledge is a dangerous thing."
The more I learned, the more I wanted to do with my students, the more I wanted to share with my colleagues at school. This increased my workload but it was definitely worth it to me and to my students. I have taken three online courses in a row. Taking a forth this Summer is out of the question. I should be rearing to go again in the Fall.

Online courses

I have almost completed my third online course of the year. It was initially to change categories on the pay scale so that I could improve my pension. I have to admit that I didn't expect to learn as much as I did. By that I mean that I thought that I would put the minimum work required to get my credits. A funny thing happened however. I worked many more hours that I thought I would and rather enjoyed learning new things.
The instructors make a difference as do the participants. As teachers, we owe it to our students and ourselves to be life-long learners. This is especially true of technology.
