I don’t know if I had a particular “wow-moment” but one of the biggest things I learned through this class is that you really just have to try things out in order to learn how to use them. Every time we started learning about a new tool I felt overwhelmed at first but once I started figuring out how to use it myself I was really excited to see how it worked and how I could potentially use it in my future classroom. Probably two of these moments were making my own podcast and making my going google map. I had no idea I could do something like that and make it look decent. Making my own podcast was really easy and there are so many different topics I could do a podcast over. I think it would be fun to have my own weekly podcast. The thought of making my own google map seemed super difficult, but that was really easy too. As an educator I was my students to not be afraid to use tools like these just because they might seem difficult. These tools can be a great way for project-based learning. I wouldn’t my students to miss out on something like this! It surprised me how simple it was and how useful it can be!
