1. What were your favorite discoveries or exercises on this learning journey?
My favorite discovery on this learning journey was obviously finding new things that are out there that can be used in the classroom and/or on a individual level. My favorite find was the software Kizoa that is able to put beautiful movies together. I also found Edpuzzle that I believe will be very useful in my classroom.

2. How has this type of program assisted or affected your lifelong learning goals?
This reminds me to take the time once in awhile to see what new and valuable 2.0 tools are out there that can help create a wonderful learning environment in my class. Perhaps I will even continue with this blog and have a goal of searching twice a month if not once a month.
3. Were there any take-a-ways or unexpected outcomes from the 16 Things exercises that surprised you?
I am always surprised that there are more things out there that have unique twists and ways of using it to simplify not only teaching in the classroom but also on a personal level.
4. What could I do differently to improve upon this program’s format or concept?
I think it would have been neat to sometimes have 30 minutes in class to explore each others blogs once in awhile. This way you could actually have a little designated time to look at some of the things they recommend and found themselves. Maybe even at the end of the "16 things" students have a presentation on three of their best take aways.
