I learned how to align pesky paragraphs in Microsoft Word, it might have taken me two days but that is some information I will NEVER forget! I learned what the software Inspire was and how to create learning webs while using it. I am now able to create crossword puzzles and word searches. And last but not least: I have learned how to incorporate technology into ALL aspects of teaching!
