What have I taken away from this course that will change the way I teach in the 4-H classroom. I must start off by saying this has been a very challenging course. It is the first course I have ever taken in the summer and was very difficult for me. I did not take into consideration how busy I am in the summer as a4-H agent. However all of it was worth it I have learned so much. For starters I have learned how to use technology in the classroom. Starting this blog was a challenge but it was one with a great reward. I am very proud that I can add pictures, videos and get my information out to the public. My next step is to create a blog for 4-H Camp so all of the parents can follow along as their children attend overnight camp. I also learned that to actively engage learners you have to have several different dimensions in you classroom and lesson plans. You really have to incorporate elements that will engage every type of learner. I feel my lessons from this point on will be better because of this class. Finally reading my book Complete Guide to Service Learning, (The): Proven, Practical Ways to Engage Students in Civic Responsibility, Academic Curriculum, & Social Action (Second Edition) I know have a guide to improve my Middle school leadership program. I want the leadership program to focus on service learning even more in the up coming year and this book will help guide me through the process.
