Module 1 Reflection

This module has made me think about my role as an instructional designer in the following ways:

Becoming an example for parents
Utilizing new forms of communication
Renewing my desire to incorporate technology


My ability to communicate with stakeholders has improved in a matter of days. My recent publication exhibits my personal creative ability to communicate a lesson to parents. In addition, I am impressed with the templates (that I subconsciouslly ignored) available in Word. My intentions are to utilize the different templates (newsletters, brochures, etc.) as tools to communicate with colleagues as well as provide examples to my students. Although I am fairly aware of the need to incorporate technology, I often fail to consistently use avaialable technology. There is now a desire burning within me to master many technological tools.
