When I reflect on my first experience of EDPB 530, I see myself as a little black fly that came buzzing into class, then became suddenly entangled up in the spider's web with no way out! I was dazed and confused as I struggled with the new material. I did everything I could to get away from the web, but it did not work. The web and I were brought together for a purpose.
I don't quite remember what happened next because it was all quite traumatic, but I think I got eaten alive by the Mother Spider and my DNA was reorganized so I could start fresh as one of a new generation of baby spiders. (notice I did not make Avi the mean, trap-setting spider in this metaphor - extra XP?). So now here I am... ...a new baby spider, ready to learn, and equipped with the ability to maneuver around on the web, with a goal to one day create it. As I begin anew, my goal is to become a 'techno Mother Spider', a being capable of utilizing and creating the ever-emerging web of digital technologies to nourish the growth of the learners in my care. Thank You for reading this reflection, Heather (baby techno spider)
