Thing 1 and Thing 2

I am participating in 23 Things because I am interested in incorporating more technology into my teaching.  I have been teaching for 7 years now and considered myself to be somewhat savvy with technology.  However, after reading all that you would learn by taking this course - I realized that there was a ton out there that I had left to learn.  

I am a high school Spanish teacher and have a love for bringing the culture alive in my classroom!  I am excited to see what I will be able to do by the end of this course :)

After reading Thing 1, I was amazed at how technology was incorporated cross curriculum - not just in one particular classroom.  I thought it would be neat to see this put into practice, however I was a tad skeptical how/if it could work in my building with staff participation, etc.  So many are resistant to change, especially when they have been teaching for many years.

I'm excited for this course -we'll see what happens!
