Introduction

Hi, my name is Mark Sonnen. This is my twelfth year of teaching. My first teaching job was teaching 5th grade at a bilingual school in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. After that I taught 7th grade math in Grand Junction, Colorado for five years, and most recently I have been teaching 5th grade again for the past four plus years in northern Colorado. I will be posting here with updates on my new learning for my Impact of Technology on Education, Work, and Society course. One of the big ways I currently use technology is by utilizing Google Classroom. I post a lot of Google assignments through Google Forms, Google Docs, and Google Slides. This helps me keep my class organized, reduce use of paper, and give quicker feedback. I am curious to explore new uses of technology in the classroom throughout this course.
