Course Reflection:
This course allowed me to experience new educational technology in various forms. I was able to create online projects using new programs unfamiliar to. I created an educational website through the knowledge learned in this course. We discovered new technologies, evaluated those technologies, and learned that not all programs are user-friendly or suited for what the learner needs. This course taught me how useful and harmful technology can be to students and in the classroom.
