 **Margret M. Keats** **__Educational Technology Portfolio__**

I found this quote which I feel fits me as a student: // “Who dares to teach must never cease to learn.” // //John C. Dana// The following quote compliments my philosophy as an educator: // “The art of teaching is the art of assisting discovery.” //// Mark van Doren // My Educational Technology Portfolio contains examples of lesson plans, units, PowerPoints, and video. As an educator, I was interested in learning about technology so I could grow as a teacher and incorporate new methods into my lessons. These 21st Century tools were used to enhance student learning by finding new ways to engage students in my first grade classroom at Northside Elementary School in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin.

All of my projects were created while I was enrolled in the Master’s Degree in Educational Technology Program at Marian University. This program has helped me grow in my understanding and use of technology, both in and outside of the classroom. I have designed units and materials that I will employ as a teacher and plan to continue creating resources with the skills I acquired in this program. My students were excited and engaged using these projects, websites, and materials which were added to my daily lessons.

The Master’s in Educational Technology Program has helped me become a resource for my colleagues in my school. Some of my materials that I generated have been used by my first grade team. Additionally, I have shared information and websites that I have found to be beneficial to our curriculum with my colleagues.
