Week 3

Field is already over! I can't believe it has gone by so fast. So my technology lessons totally flopped. First of all, my school is virtually void of technology. I had a really hard time finding a time to go to one of the two computer labs that worked with my and the students' schedules. I had to take work off and come in earlier than usual. When I got there, my teacher let me know that the whole system crashed that morning and wouldn't be up for a couple days. This was the beginning of the week. I did my lesson without the computers and rescheduled a time for the computer lab, hoping the system would be fixed. I planned my lesson for a PowerPoint and came in early again. However, the system was still down and stayed that way for the rest of my experience. I racked my brain trying to find other ways I could incorporate technology. The only other technology my school had available were overhead projectors. Hopefully this'll be ok. I had the lessons all planned out and they would have worked wonderfully if the technology hadn't have been so stupid! I guess I should have scheduled a lesson earlier and forgot about chronological order, there was just no way to foresee this happening. Oh well!
