This was officially the first opportunity we had to "grill" MAC graduates/teachers about their teaching experiences (Mr. Ward not included). I also noted the diversity of experiences and schools represented by the panel members, and it makes me wonder what my life and career will be like a little over a year from now...Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10419860873040455812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1822787109990511162.post-30798343707040804942012-08-06T18:47:04.518-07:002012-08-06T18:47:04.518-07:00Paula,

I know what you mean about not quite feeling liberated after class on Friday. Even as I sit and type this now several days later I STILL have yet to complete all the work that needs to be in for me to be officially "done" with the term. However, I do agree when you say how unique the MAC program is, and I feel like in many ways they are trying to prepare us for all the different going on's that we will face on a regular basis as teachers. How many different things can they juggle at once? sort of thing. <br />At any rate, enjoy these couple weeks off & your new hubby. Congratulations!Tinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12863462463359527027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1822787109990511162.post-38744922064260538872012-08-06T12:52:13.868-07:002012-08-06T12:52:13.868-07:00At first I read "little" in front of &qu...At first I read "little" in front of "papers and assignments." I let our a horrified gasp in the middle of the fishbowl (my favorite computing site on campus). I thought, "who is this person? Since when were those assignments 'little,' especially for someone about to embark on a destination wedding??" I thought you were a superwoman before, and that little sentence really blew me away. After rereading, I am glad to see these assignment aren't "little" to you, I feel a little less inadequate ;).<br />I also really appreciate this class. If I was left to my own devices, I would not know nearly as much as I now do about technology. Though I know I won't use it all, I do know I have an arsenal of tools at my disposal when the appropriate time comes along.<br />I agree, the panel of former MAC students was very useful. The way no one but our fellow cohort members know how we feel, I think former MAC students are the only ones that understand our particular anxieties about our future in teaching.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09875793521192078641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1822787109990511162.post-5959576042190297442012-08-06T12:08:21.455-07:002012-08-06T12:08:21.455-07:00I also enjoyed the visit form past MACers.

I really enjoyed being exposed to different types of technology. It was also interesting to see that there are so many ways to do the exact same thing. There really is something out there for everyone. I know I may not use every piece of technology that we were taught, however I can see the value in each of them.Musetta Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00452873334150748640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1822787109990511162.post-31961840398461423112012-08-05T17:31:58.105-07:002012-08-05T17:31:58.105-07:00The panel was, indeed, an appropriate and encourag...The panel was, indeed, an appropriate and encouraging was to close the term. I was dreading a class full of new information that would be completely wasted, since it's the end of the semester and we wouldn't get a chance to practice. A day to review and look ahead was just the ticket. What tools do you see yourself using? By which were you surprised?Domina Vitaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08504864453037900643noreply@blogger.com
