Old Dogs Learning New Tricks

I tell my students to try new things in the classroom and not to be afraid - so this is my attempt to practice what I preach!  I have been inspired by some video clips I have watched lately regarding the lack of technology used by educators in the classrooms.  I did NOT want to be guilty of this, yet I have to admit that I have a small voice whispering "You don't know how to ....you will mess up...."  I respond with - I don't know how YET and I will mess up (and that is how I will learn!)

I am glad I live in a time when I can connect with people around the world and learn with them.  I will continue to be an optimist and look at technology as a tool.  I love teaching, so I am grateful to have more tools with which to support others on their journey of learning.
