Reflection
There are several immediate adjustments that I will make to my instructional practice regarding the use of technology integration to customize my instruction as a result of my learning from this course. The two major adjustments that I will make are the use of UDL and differentiated instruction in my lesson and unit plans.
One of the ways that I will use UDL is that I will provide students with multiple means of representing the information. I can do this by providing multiple ways in which I present the information to my students. Another use of UDL in the classroom is to provide multiple means of action and expression for my students. I can do this by giving them a choice as to what type of technology they would like to use to express the information being learned. A third use of UDL in the classroom is to stimulate interest and motivation for learning. This can be done in a variety of ways.
A second way that I will use the information that I have learned in the class is to differentiate instruction. I will use this by creating multiple a activities for my lesson that would incorporate all students in the classroom.

Reflection
I believe the game plan that I developed went pretty well. I believe that the students were able to meet the goals that i set for them and the goals I set for myself. Some of the things I learned from this process is that its important that you allow yourself alot of time and planning time when implementing a game plan as the one i did for this class. There were alot of things that came up that I did not allow time for in my original process. Some of the instructional adjustments that I will make for my instructional practice include more time for the teaching of Internet etiquette for my students.

Evaluating Your Gameplan Progress
My actions were somewhat helpfull in meeting my goals.
I have learned that the students really do have concern for their community and want to do something to make better. In the future I will put more focus on community service as part of my curriculm.
I still have to learn to be more effective in implementing these standards. No new questions have arisen.
I will adjust my plans to meet my current needs by doing more hands on activites with the studetns because I have more lower level students than before.

Using the GAME Plan Process with Students
There are many things that I could do to help my students achieve proficiency in the standards set forth in the NETS-S. One thing I can do is make sure my students use proper etiquette when using the Internet and others uses of technology. Another step that I can take is too create a check list of the standards for each one of my students. We could then set up steps to be taken to achieve proficiency in those standards.

Revising Your Game Plan
So far I have learned that it is a difficult process to achieve ones goals. I'm still working towards my current goals. Based on the NETS-T one of my new learning goals will be to customize and personalize learning activities to address students' diverse learning styles, working strategies, and abilities using digital tools and resources. Next time I will try to use more of a collaboration method to achieve my goals.
