Jeremie De Leon Farewell Reflection

For an intercession class, the number of assignments was what I expected. I was worried with both the number of assignments and the time frame of the class. I did end up panicking a bit, but as soon as I organized the assignments, I noticed that the assignments were not as overwhelming as I thought. The very first thing that I learned from this class is that a different perspective will help. In this case, when I listed down the assignments and categorized them into forums and assignments with due dates, I was able to calm down. Seeing the assignments lined up, I was able to finish and submit them on a timely manner.

The aim of the class was to learn strategies and resources to teach with the internet. The aim was reached, and I gained valuable knowledge and information on internet tools and resources. Despite the workload, I enjoyed working on them and I wished there was more. The Geo-Narrative assignment was something entirely new to me. I thought Google Earth was the same as Google Map, but there were more features than I thought. It was fun and exiting to explore Google Earth and I know that my students will have fun with the application when they use it.

Overall, the class was beneficial, and I gained a lot that I can use in my teacher toolbelt. The assignments were challenging, but in the end, it was all worth it. Despite the short duration, I was able to learn a lot form this class.

    Your experience in the ED638 class is a testament to the power of organization and perspective in managing a demanding workload. Initially overwhelmed, your strategy of categorizing and scheduling assignments not only helped you gain control but also made the tasks seem more manageable. It's impressive how you embraced the challenge, particularly with the Geo-Narrative assignment, discovering new aspects of familiar tools like Google Earth. Your enthusiasm for learning and applying new internet strategies and resources in your teaching is admirable. This experience, undoubtedly enriching your 'teacher toolbelt', demonstrates your commitment to continuous learning and adaptability, essential qualities in the ever-evolving field of education.

       Google Classroom was the platform that the Guam Department of Education chose to use for our online classes. I found it easy to use and understand for both teachers and students, especially when it had to be done with no training when the pandemic hit us. Google Classroom was easy to use because all students and teachers had a Google account through the department. Teachers were able to assign assignments through various Google platforms such as Google Slides, Google Docs, and Google Meet. I liked how Google Classroom can put all the different resources into one LMS for the students and teachers to use.       Google Classroom has a lot of functions, such as being able to grade the students' assignments on the spot, and I liked how the students were able to download the application to access their assignments, whether it is through their phones, tablets, or laptops. I also enjoyed how Google Classroom allows the students to discuss the topics I posted, so our class had its fo

     Moby Max (https://www.mobymax.com/) is a K-8 learning website for all major subjects such as Math, Literacy, Science, and Social Studies. Students will be taking a diagnostic test for teachers to understand what level they are in, and it guides the teachers on how to differentiate the lessons for the students. Moby Max also has over 60 curriculum, assessments, practice modules, and subjects for the teachers to use. This program also actively engages the students with what they are learning, and it allows them to stay at their own pace with the assignments they are completing. It also gives the teachers the data when they are progress monitoring the student. Teachers can also customize the test prep questions and lessons to fit what they are learning in class.       There are schools from the Guam Department of Education piloting the Moby Max program at their schools. Unfortunately, the school I am teaching in is currently not using this program. As I spoke to the other teachers at
