LST 491 course has illuminated me to view the current scenario of the US education. Before starting the class, the course title looked like a boring subject. But more I involved into the course the more I feel interested, only because of Dr. Garrigon’s teaching style and strategy. Every class is so interesting, impressive and thoughtful because through real life story telling he introduced the unknown topic to us. I came to know the unknown real life story in Education and how a Technology director can handle that unusual condition and plan to make a good strategy for solving the problem. In my view,Technology Coordinator’s job is very hard and challenging. Without Computer science background and management, it is very hard to stick to this job. In comparison with other course, this course has fully very different aspect like management of technology in education and I enjoyed that particularly budget code part which was complex, challenging but enjoyable.
Every thoughtful question was challenging to me, because it has a profound thought in it, as I have no real life experience about school environment here in the US, I had spent much time in it, for example, imaging part. I had no idea before, compared to somebody who are already working in this environment, they may find pretty simple. I may write something not so thoughtful, but I wrote what I understood. Even though for our main project, Wikibook writing each individual had no much contribution except a small part or chapter, but through thoughtful problem writing we contribute our own thinking in every aspect of this course, particularly supporting and maintaining technology in school with an educator's standpoint.
To me Wikibook writing is the most interesting and enthusiastic part of this course. I had a feeling of just like writing a book and got an idea of up to date electronic book writing. It seems to me that cooperation, collaboration and management are very important in Wiki book writing. Compared to others I have not much discussion in the first, but later I met several times and we distributed our work in three subsections. Actually I focused on both sections purchasing technology Research as well as receiving technology.
As a whole, Dr. Garrigon’s teaching strategy, Wikibook writing and Thoughtful questions has made the course pretty enjoyable and eye opening so that my writing skill has been improved as well as it has enhanced my knowledge to a great extent.
