// Week 1 Reflection: How has your knowledge of technology standards changed after this module? Reflect on your own use of technology standards in your classroom and personal use. //  Description : The assignment was to read the National Educational Technology Standards: NETS-T, NETS-S, NETS-A, NETS-TF and TF/TL. Impact: This is the first I heard of NETS. Even though I wasn’t aware of these standards, I quickly realized I was practicing many of them. There is a lot more I need to learn so I could be at the highest level. The first step I need to take is see what the students enjoy using/doing as far as technology. I have such a wide range of age disparity of students being a Special Education teacher. My school also needs to update most of the computers so the students and teachers can attack some of these standards. Most of the equipment is out dated or broken so it is difficult to implement some technologies in the classroom.

Intent: I now plan on integrating some of the new standards I read about. I also can’t wait to introduce the Wiki to my colleagues. I think it would help teachers, students and even parents communicate more. I will also share the knowledge gathered to our school's facilitator so she will help in the strategy of implementation to our staff.
