Mid-Course Check In

For my mid-course check in I feel like i am doing better and feeling about working with technology. I am still a little apprehensive on certain projects and activities that we have to complete because sometime they seem really difficult and I don't really understand. But when the teacher explains and shows us exactly how to do it or provides rubrics/ examples it is a little easier to understand and complete. I really believe that the rubrics and examples from previous classes really help because I am such a visual learner. therefore, seeing it really benefits me to understanding what exactly I need to do. I am getting more and more comfortable with working on an apple computer and figuring out how to use it is getting easier. I especially like when the teachers tells us how to do things with the command tab. I remember those shortcuts and it really helps when your working in the mac computer.
I am getting nervous about my internship because I start at Alcoa Elementary on Monday, July 18th but we are still in class so I am getting anxiety over what i'm going to do. I assume I will be driving back and forth until our class is over because i do not want to miss any classes and receive points off. I am dedicated to both my internship and this class so i will definitely make it work, but it'll be difficult when assignments and tests are due because the majority of my time will be at Alcoa. Overall, the class is getting better and I am not as scared anymore to try things but I am getting nervous about the last few weeks of the class due to my internship placement. I have really enjoyed the projects and activities that we have completed and I look forward to learning more on how to integrate technology into the classroom.
