Website Evaluation

The website evaluation assignment was a new experience for me. I knew that websites had authors, etc., and could be credible or not, but I had no idea how to determine a website's credibility. I will be much more careful with the websites that I look at and get resources from. I don't want to refer anyone to a "bad" website. I feel that this exercise would be very useful for my students in the future as well. They need to know how to navigate the web and find websites that will help them, rather than hinder them. Information is easy to post on the internet and it is a little harder to negotiate the reliability of this information.

Welcome!

Welcome to my blog! This is my journey in TPTE 486. I'm a casual technology user; I check my e-mail and facebook and I can manage iTunes, but my technological advancement stops there. I hope to learn how to use many other tools and applications. In my blog, I will document my advancements and reflections as I continue through this course. I am very excited about learning how to incorporate technology in to my classroom.
