I found it interesting that several of my colleagues mentioned wanting a digital gradebook, and I just wanted to tell them that there is that technology already available. My teachers used it in highschool. It was not webbased, as some have wanted, but my brother, who is currently in high school is now using a different kind of digital gradebook that is available online. It is kind of like a modified BlackBoard like we use and it is very helpful.

Next, I would like to learn how to do webdesign, so that I can design a webpage for my classroom when I am a teacher. I realize that there are plenty of websites available to assist teachers in making a simple classroom website, but I want to be able to make my own, original website and use html to personalize the site for my students.

I might acheive this goal by taking a webdesign course in the future or having someone who has this skill instruct and teach me on how to do the same. I am sure that I will go through a lot more technology training before I become a teacher and it can only add to the skills which I already have in the area of technology.
