1. What did you have to learn to complete this project? How did you learn it?
- For this project I had to research 5 common online course embed tools. I looked on the web and found the most recurring tools that were recommended by teachers. Then, I had to go to each tool and learn what their tool does and how it would actually help students learn in a fun and creative environment.
- I benefited from this project by successfully finding 5 common tools that even I want to try during course development.
- I struggled because I could not find common tools reviewed and suggested by educators, instead of companies marketing their tool. I found most of the tools from ISTE 2016 event list, provided by a professor during my masters program.
- I plan on actually using one, some, or all of these tools in a practical lesson when I design courses.
- Then, next step would be the answer from above; to actually use these tools in course design in a lesson.
