These are all of the fun badges I have earned and collected along the way through my Genius Hour Journey in my technology course at Brock Teacher's College!

Digital ID Badge: Awarded for recognizing your digital footprint and the strategies required to transform your footprint into a professional and positive one.

It may include elements such as, missions, badges, and rewards.

Order of TPACK Badge: Awarded for attending class each week on time, as well as collaborating with peers in discussion, and staying professional throughout the course and providing effective feedback on peer work.
Now that this course has sadly come to an end, I have come to realize that at the beginning of this course I would have considered my technological skills to be fairly weak. However, now I can confidently say that I have learned a lot about technology, tools, and strategies that I can use to implement into my future classroom. I have had a rewarding experience working on my 6 week genius hour project on a topic that I am so passionate about. I hope that the plan I created for it will inspire others who view it and maybe can make a positive difference one day in the right direction toward greater environmental awareness and stewardship. I would like to thank my professor of this course for a great experience!
Bye for now!
