Throughout the duration of thi course, i have learned a lot. I have learned that there are ways to connect the things we learn in the classroom (or online format as it is here) and the real world (being in school classrooms). As we have learned new things in the class, it was interesting to see how the teacher I observed applied those things in her classroom.
As I have learned, i have been able to get my thoughts down on this blog. It has been a great way for me to reflect on the things that I saw in the classroom and figure out how they applied to the things I learned in the readings or discussions.
I believe that it really helped to have a blog to point out (often to myself) that the things in the classroom are actually concepts that I will use in my own classroom someday. Also, through the course of this experience, i have been more open and willing to express my opinions on this blog without worry.
I definitely can see connections a lot more than in the beginning. It probably has something to do with the fact that I was learning how to be a teacher, while also watching a teacher relatively closely in their won classroom. It is a lot easier for me to see similarities in my learning and real world application
