Learning Log
During my time in the BSU EDTECH program, we were encouraged asked to keep a Learning Log which highlights our learning in our various courses. EDTECH597 continued with this tradition and provided me a space to reflect on my growth during the course. To make it easier for users to navigate, I tagged all posts with the label edtech597 (click here for a direct link to all posts related to the course).
