Technology Self-Assessment: School 2.0

This is a reflection tool used to assess my current knowledge of technology. It meets NETS-T 4.


The NETS-T I researched was Engage in Professional Growth and Leadership. I chose this NETS-T because I know that I need a lot of improvement in this area. An area of professional growth and leadership that I can expand on is actively participating in local and global learning communities to exchange and implement ideas and methods related to creative applications of technology to improve student learning. One of the resources available to do this is Classroom 2.0. This website is a social network used to share tips in integrating technology into our education systems.

Classroom 2.0 offers workshops for new and advanced learners to find new ways to expand technology in the classroom. The workshops are geared toward and run by those who attend. The workshops are collaborative, so there are no outside experts trying to teach teachers things that are unnecessary for a classroom setting. The workshops are built for teachers by teachers.

There is also an online forum for people to post and answer questions. This is a great resource for teachers who don't have others to help them in their community. The use of forums will allow for technology to expand into more schools across the country.

Classroom 2.0 will help the next generation of teachers and students as our culture and society becomes more technologically advanced and more dependent upon technology in our daily lives.
