Technology, in this day and age you would think most people, especially those my age would be very computer savvy, but I suppose I am an exception. My house was among the last in our neighborhood to get a computer, have internet access, and finally switch from dial up, which we just did this summer! Needless to say, growing up I spent very little time on the computer and now, know very little about it. I can use Microsoft word and power point because it has become a necessity for most of high school work. Beyond that, I don’t do much else, although I do have a MySpace and a Facebook, but the sad truth is that I have to get my younger sister’s help anytime I want to change something on my profile.
Because I know very little about computers and technology, I am anxious to learn anything and everything offered to me through this course. I admit, I will probably be a slow learner, but given time I think I can figure this stuff out. And hopefully, I can continue to learn after this course is finished, and one day I may incorporate what I have learned into my classroom as a teacher.
Based on the first day of class, I have discovered that I am worse than I thought I was with technology, and that I really need to take it slow, especially in order to remember what I have done that day. I will probably have to ask a lot of questions, but I look forward to the learning experience.
