I use the following software applications regularly in my teaching practice:
Harmony- Used for recording attendance, lunch count, student personal information, grades, lesson planning, and communication with the administration for discipline
ActiveInspire- Used for many different types of interactive activities with the students
Microsoft Word- Used to create worksheets, parent newsletters, and other word processing needs pertaining to the classroom
I would like to improve my skills in all of these areas. I know that I am currently just scratching the surface of what is available that I can use to increase my professional efficiacy. I especially would like to become more proficient in the use of the ActiveInspire software. It is a very exciting teaching tool for my students and I want to become more comfortable with using it. This will take some time to play with it and find out what is available and then how to incorporate it into my lesson planning.
I plan to continue to ask for help from someone who has more experience than me and to try to add as many new skills to better myself in these areas. I want to get better at what I already know before I try to take on too many other new things and then don't do any of them very well.
