// The outcomes I had envisioned for this course includes- developing the education for Pre-K12 students with the help of long range plan and to improve the technology usage in schools. This long range plan taught some ways to improve the online education by proper implementation of advanced technology. //// The technology brings the world to the classroom and provides communication tools to get access to the world beyond current boundaries. The need for curriculum alignment, explore best practices in education technology and more flexibility to try new methods of teaching and learning are challenges that impact teaching and learning. The outcomes that I achieved are, I have learnt about the educational technology which makes the American students unique from the rest of the world, participating in the “Discussions” forum helped me to learn a lot about the education technology, I have learnt a lot about the internet tools like creating a bog, custom search engine, etc. This course provided me a lot of independence; I could work whenever I had room for work. Every week I have learnt a lot thing about educational technology. I have improved my reading and writing skills using MS office. I became proficient in working. The actual course outcomes have more than I envisioned. I have learnt many new things about the American education. // // The outcomes achieved are relevant to the work that I do in my school. Distance learning is a powerful tool providing students with equitable access to quality education and instruction and helps in overcoming the potential limitations. More information can be gathered by these online courses which help to pave better future. The reading and writing skills I have achieved in this course help me a lot in writing my thesis, grants, etc., Presently I know how to create a blog, wiki and custom search engine, so I have created a blog and a wiki to share my ideas about my research work with my peers. Without taking this course I would have not learnt about these many digital tools which are presently helping me. The technology brings the world to the classroom and provides communication tools to get access to the world beyond current boundaries. We can’t get complete information from class and we need to get more information online. Online learning is an important strategy providing teachers, administrators and those going through preparation programs with opportunities for professional growth. The outcomes I achieved help me to save time and gather more information in a particular subject // // In the week 4 assignment, it was hard to get the other students involved. It seemed to me that it was difficult to get quality responses from the other students. Maybe if I was more persistent online or had contact information for the other students in the class, I may have been better equipped for the execution of the assignment. //  // I believe that I was successful in achieving the course assignments. I worked hard to complete each section and requirement of the assignments and strived to meet the goals asked for ////. The thing which encouraged me a lot in carrying out the course assignments is information provided online. I got complete information for completion of assignments from the information provided in Blackboard and the websites provided. I learnt many things from this course like how to know a site whether it is personal website or public website, to create a blog, to create a wiki and how to make discussions on a particular topic and get information gathered. We can make good discussions through wikis and get good information which we are not aware of. // // I learned many things from this course. Now, after completing the course I feel like I can handle any school and can do something for better improvement of the school and the education system in it. I learned how technology plays a main role in education, how technology is important to pave a better future, how digital media is helpful for students and also how infrastructure plays an important role in developing a school. This course gave me an idea what’s going on in Pre-K schools, what they are up to and what steps need to be taken for better schools. I got to know how to make a wiki, how to create a blog and get the information through discussing online. Now my attitudes are to develop technology filled schools and explore new ways and to implement new techniques in technology usage in school in order to achieve great heights. //
