Interactivity #3

I usually get overwhelmed with group work. Everyone works at different speeds. Some people like to get ahead of things, while others perform better under pressure. We all have busy lives and hectic schedules. This time around, the group work proved to be different than most of my experiences in the past. Everyone seemed to be open-minded and pleasant. And in the end, I believe the project came together nicely. I learned  about so many different technologies that can be utilized in a history class. Most times when I tell people I want to be a history teacher, they roll their eyes or groan. With these new techniques I've acquired, I believe I can make learning history a fantastic experience. Through all of my years of education, I never came across Google docs. I thought it was a great way for people who don't even know each other to come together and work on a project. I will definitely be using Google docs as well as many of the other technologies in my own classroom one day.
