As a teacher I believe that I will use excel similiarly to the way I used it in class. I enjoyed learning how to create worksheets using another program other than a word program. Because I created a science worksheet, on the weather, I would feel very comfortable creating a chart, table, graph, etc., and having my students, 4th graders, interperut the information I have provided them. So far on our final course project we have put together the 2-4 page narriative. My partner has put together the spreadsheet, using excel, of the items we wish to purchase and the amount each one will cost. However, my partner and I have not spent a lot of time working on the project inclass nor have we discussed the project outside of class. I believe that one of the biggest challenges so far has been deciding what technology we wish to incorporate in our project.
One of my favorite web-based tools is ability the to add web pages to my favorites. As does anyone, I have some web pages that I visit more than others and I find it extremely helpful to be able to easily access web sites that I visit often.
