As I watched this weeks videos, I found myself thinking back to month 2 when we applied the ADDIE model to lesson planning. It was a complex series of analysis which came down to knowing your audience. Teaching students to use the appropriate tools and technology to delivery their message is so important. I thought back to when I first had students create projects on the computer and for the most part I chose the appropriate tools. Creating a propaganda poster with one image and powerful text is one of my favorite examples as well as the time students recorded a old time radio advertisement to reflect a period in history. Yet I still find novelty alluring but must remind myself to utilize the best tool so that the audience receives the intended message.

This is a problem of have so many remarkable tools to work with. But our job isn't to show off the tools or our skills, but find the best ones to move our learners along in their journey.
