ETEC 524: Intro to Educational Technology
When I was assigned to write my philosophy for the Educational Technology course, it required a lot of time. Not because it was a difficult assignment, but because I knew my beliefs, what I wanted to say, and I wanted it perfect. It was a struggle putting my thoughts into sentences. Plus, you can't just say what you believe, because you have to support your thinking with evidence. I even found my original portfolio (three-ring binder), from seventeen years ago, and referred to it as guidance for reflecting. It's amazing to see the hard proof of how much education has changed, including the work produced.

One of my artifacts in the binder was a review of the Internet. Reading that and thinking about the present day, solidifies my thoughts of the necessity for technology. I can't function without the Internet! Taking this class right now wouldn't be possible without it. Using my previous portfolio helped start my philosophy.

The readings from the class 'Introduction to Educational Technology' were useful resources to use as a reference for writing my philosophy. I also referred to the famous philosopher Dewey for insightful quotes. Using the TPACK framework is important to me, so I included my beliefs about it, too.

My philosophy is written in a chronological format, and a true reflection, written from the heart. Writing my philosophy was an endeavor that I was happy to partake because it forced me to review my beliefs and see how much they've changed over the years.
