Welcome to Rebecca Reiter's Introduction to Instructional Technology Wiki
 [|By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.]  [|Confucius]

 I teach 7th graders at Hudson Middle School. I have been an educator since 1991. Over the past 20 plus years, technology has become an integral part of my instructional plans. Technology has allowed my students to accomplish many things that would not have been possible without it. Last spring, my students created a website that is currently being used at Hudson Middle School as the focus of our bullying awareness program. Watching students create projects with technology is rewarding. I have learned much of what I know about technology in the classroom with and from my students. In addition to what I have taught them, they have taught me as well. I show them one way to complete a task, they teach me two or three other ways to accomplish the same task. It is reciprocal learning at its best. I am very excited to be starting my formal ICT training. I hope to become a technology facilitator or a technology coach, but I want to continue working with students so that I can continue to marvel at their innovation and creativity.
