I feel that this class was very successful and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm not to sure as to where this will take me yet. I do have another Intro class to take...Diversity. This class was extremely useful and I'm glad I took it. I think my favorite thing was this Blog. I now have my own and I have told my roommates about it and they have them now too. The word is spreading fast about blogging and they all seem to like it.
The thing that I despised the most about this class was SAM. I don't think that it was effective at all. It messed my computer up and didn't really teach me much of anything. But like all the other classes you cant like everything about the class.
I am very excited to continue with my major and scared at the same time to start my own class. I have a ways to go before that happens. Having your own class brings mixed emotions but I think in the end it will be very rewarding. I'm excited to use this new information and all that Mr. Gentiles has showed us and help my students.

I have said this in many of my other posts but overall I feel that this class has greatly benefited me! This class will be used further throughout my career as a student at FSU as well as a Teacher later on down the road. This class was well organized and helpful. The only thing that would make this class better, is if it weren't so early. 8am classes are horrible anyways and then for this class to be almost 3 hours, seems too long.

Mr. Gentile was a great teacher. Very helpful and understanding. He truly cared about his students. He was personable and easy to relate too. He understood that we were all busy with other classes and tried to accommodate all of our needs. He was clear with his instructions and used power points and podcast to help us if we didn't understand. He gave us his phone number to call him if we had any questions or needed any outside help. He really does care and since he had such a positive outlook on teaching and shared both negative and postive aspects of teaching he made teaching sound more enjoyable than other teaches in Intro to Education classes make it sound.

This class was enjoyable and overall helpful. I would recommend everyone to take this class especially with Mr. Gentile.
