We are learning about digital stories, what they are and how to create one. The assignment we will be performing will be making a digital story to use in our upcoming field experience, in one of our lesson plans.
For me as a teacher, this could just be another approach in teaching a subject that may be boring or uninteresting to some, and make it into something that can catch their attention. I believe we are doing this to better our ways of teaching and to widen our mindset, into somthing besides standing and teaching and talking. To me, technology is a skill that can better what you already know, opening your mind to new things. To my colleagues, this can mean a better perspective for them, because maybe they have not been exposed to methods like these.
To my future students, technology can mean more opportunities to express they way they feel and get a better sense of they way they like to be taught. This can change the way I can be a better teacher because each time I learn something new, it is just one more type of teaching, added to my "teaching type" bank! I personally love new ideas like this. Well, new to me. The more I learn they more ways I feel I can reach more kids through teaching.
