Proloquo2Go on iPod/Day 4

Each day we go to class, we are faced with a new challenge. I am beginning to have a deeper understanding of the demands I place on my students. I can hear that voice in my head. "Mrs. LeBlanc, this is too difficult!" But like my students, I attempt to stick with it and I feel that I am learning during the process. And similar to our professor, I know when my students are ready for the challenge.

The hands-on case study activity today, was just what I needed to become more familiar with the Proloquo2Go program and the iPod. I am far from an expert but today I became comfortable with a few of the aspects of the program's functioning. In class we were able to organize the design of the assignment, and place several messages on the iPod. During the process, I became familiar with many of the functions of the program.

Our class is broken into two groups and these large groups are broken into four divisions. Perhaps the larger group was developed to create a similar setting to that of the school. (when we are program planning for our students). I enjoyed the opportunity to become more familiar with other people in the class.

So it looks like my homework will be to review the Proloquo2Go video, manual and tutorial. This will help me to develop a stronger comfort zone with this program.
