Finale :)

My Reflection
Educational technology subject is very important to us teachers. Through educational technology, we are aware of the new gadgets that are useful in the school and how to use it. We can have a greater understanding of the technology of its importance to our life. Learning educational technology is a must to us teachers so that we can share to our students or guide our students how to use them properly. In us teachers we will always be updated. The learning’s we got from the educational technology 2 can later be applied in our fields to get the attention of the students and we can give them a new way of learning.
To me as a student and a future educator it is a privilege to take this subject. I was able to learned lots of things mostly in the techniques. In my journey as a student I never knew to use shortcut keys, because of educational technology I was able to discover how to use it. I mastered making a PowerPoint presentation, excel in computing grades, publisher in making cards and etc. Before I always thought that MS publisher has no use, because of the educational technology I was able to discover that MS publisher is used in making cards, certificates, greeting cards and etc. It was amazing to know its use. I’m so thankful to educational technology because it gives me lots of ideas to use in the field of teaching. This subject is stressful most of the time but overall it was fun and very educational which I’m going to miss.

Exercise No. 11: Educational Show

This was the most fun exercise in Educational technology 2. Because we are tasked to create our own educational show. We act as the actor/actress, director and the camera man. It was stressful at the same time because we need to edit the videos manually.
