I was a little overwhelmed with the amount of information offered to me in week one and the start of week two. I have only done one uni course previous to the two I'm doing this term, and I'm still enrolled in high school. So as you can imagine this was a major step into the unknown for me.
A lot of the readings so far have been on how you can incorporate technology and new ways of teaching to the classroom. This is hard for me because I haven't had much experience teaching kids, if anything I'm on the other end of the scale, I am the kid being taught. Other than the odd helping out to look after kids or tutoring a few children, I have close to no experience in this area.
Which frustrates me because I have to learn all these new ideas and techniques to teach and I haven't yet had the chance to go out and really work out how I would put them into practice.
This however has little to do with the course itself, I love how everything is laid out. It's easy to understand and there isn't a shortage of help if you get totally lost. What I love most is that everyone involved in the course is helping one another to get through and we are also learning off one another.
