I seem to try to do too much withing a given period of time and it seems to be frustrating to students who make mistakes and need more time to process.

11. CONCLUSION The experience has taught me to be much more specific and focused on what is to be learned (standards based), activities used to reinforce objectives, and methods used to assess what the students have learned. The process and improved equipment has encouraged me to venture more toward using technology. I am very grateful for the opportunity to expand my knowledge of the use of computers and how to apply it in the classroom. I am excited about the students having up to date equipment and internet access. It is motivating for the teacher and the student.
