I'm not entirely sure what I was expecting from this course at the beginning other than trying to learn a little more about STEM. I think a got a lot more than that. The biggest thing for me was to see all of the different tools that can be used in the classroom. I try to keep up on much of that type of stuff but there were still things that we worked on that I would not have otherwise known about or even spent the time to try. While I may not use all of them, at least I am aware that they are out there now. It also helped me to do the DBLL activities. I usually try to add some of these into my classrooms and this forced me to add additional activities that I think helped my classes this semester. Finally, the course did require a lot more time than I had planned. I was eventually able to get it done but it came with much effort.
