Last week we had a brief instruction on using technology in the classroom to modify the lesson for students with disabilities. The importance of mastering this cannot be understated. Everyone in the class got to use at least one program then give a short summary of it's beneficial characteristics. Once we were done with that I did my Web 2.0 presentation for the rest of the class. My topic was a Web 2.0 called Hotchalk. It is a Learning Management System that teachers can use to post assignments, classroom notes, and information for parents. As far as speaking in front of a group is concerned I have no qualms. Hopefully this will carry over in to the classroom once I am in front of a group of teenagers!
