What GEN 2243 Has Taught Me

     Sadly, GEN 2243 is coming to an end this coming Wednesday. I can honestly say I have learned so much throughout the semester in this class in particular. I have not only become more acquainted with tools such as Prezi but also developed a PLN and tips on making my PLN grow. I now know how important social media is in my future career as an educator. I have to be extremely mindful of what I put on social media and always use social media to my advantage.

     My favorite part about GEN 2243 was definitely the Google Hangout sessions. I really loved being able to hear from a variety of professionals from companies such as Microsoft. These sessions taught me so much and allowed me to ask questions personally which I really appreciated. Also, being able to create my own website that I can take with me into my future is helpful in so many ways. Throughout my college career I can add content to my website and use it as a portfolio for future jobs. What I appreciated most about this class was that it allowed me to take what I learned and created and continue to use it in my future. Overall, I definitely recommend that others take GEN 2243 in order to expand their digital portfolio.
