Share the Wealth (Session 6, Capstone 2)

Well as a culminating activity to my ISTE Capstone journey, I have to come up with a way to express all that I have learned in 3 to 5 minutes! UGH! I have never been to stay within a time limit. Anyways, I decided to try and use Prezi to highlight everything I’ve learned over the course of the last year about integrating technology into the curriculum, global citizenship, and the digital world. Prezi is an awesome digital tool and I will definitely be using it a lot in the coming months as I move away from being a PowerPoint Queen. My students are going to be so surprised as I generally have used PowerPoint as a cornerstone of library instruction for the past couple of years. I have been able to incorporate a large number of digital tools into the PowerPoint format but I have been trying to move away from it for the last several months and I believe that Prezi is going to be a new favorite tool for me.

Overall, my ISTE journey has been fantastic. I have learned a tremendous amount and I have made some very good friends. While I feel like I have benefitted enormously from my Capstone experience, the real winners have to be my students who have a teacher who has been reenergized and is brimming with enthusiasm for teaching!
