Becoming an Apple Teacher is very relevant to my future classroom because it has taught me more about iPads and the different apps that I can use. I am now more confident in some of the functions of apps that are offered and how to utilize them in a meaningful way (like in my classroom). Before completing this badge, I knew some of these tools that were available but i did not have the confidence to use them when opportunities presented itself. I now have that confidence to use unfamiliar apps and see how they can make me a better teacher. I am really excited to see my knowledge for resources with apple products grow. Hopefully i can use them to make my classroom a better learning environment where my students can be engaged and express themselves freely.
I choose facilitator as my ISTE standard and think it fits in really well with this badge. I think being an apple teacher and being a facilitator go hand in hand because they both help students with technology and how to use it to their advantage in the classroom. The more I know about technology the more I can share with my students. I believe that completing this badge has opened my mind about things I did not know and I hope to share it with my students so they can benefit from them as well.
