As a result of the Multimedia and Web Design class, I gained a great deal of knowledge and skills. I have learned to use many valuable digital tools, such as Audacity, Windows Movie Maker, and Weebly. These tools will enable me to create more engaging classroom lessons. Additionally, my developing comprehension of coding has helped me troubleshoot when creating my multimedia project. I am sure that this skill will continue to benefit me greatly. My new understanding of graphic design and universal design principles helped me create my final multimedia project. I strongly believe that I will continue to apply these principles as I create lesson plans, web pages, and other projects.
The multimedia project helped me learn about the available lessons on WebQuest in addition to how to design my own. Before starting the project, I thought a WebQuest would be too time-consuming to create for frequent classroom use. However, now that I have created one, I plan to make more. I believe that these multimedia projects will increase my students’ engagement and improve their performance. Overall, I feel that this class has provided me with knowledge and skills necessary to integrate technology further in my classroom. Moreover, due to my new abilities, I feel more confident in coaching my colleagues in their efforts to integrate technology in their own classrooms.
