This has been a week in which I have been able to reflect upon what I have learned and accomplished during EDU 651. Through the writing of my final assignment, I was able to refocus on how the tools that we have been looking at can be effectively used in the classroom. Although I have had Delicious and Twitter accounts for some time now, this class prompted me to become more familiar and begin to use them again. We also used the discussion forum to debate Piaget's Theory of Education. It got me a little fired up to see him speak twenty-five years ago about issues in education that we are still struggling with today. Hopefully, aided by the use of new advances in technology, we will begin to teach our students to think and learn critically.
