Wednesday's Class

I can't believe that it is Wednesday. The week is almost over already. It's sad in a way that this class is almost over, but at the same time I definitely feel very good about it because there is so much information that I am taking with me. To be honest, I can't wait to take more technology classes. I definitely want to get a job first, and get a couple of years of teaching under my belt, but I really look forward to taking Technology of Education classes in the future so that I can improve my teaching and make my class more compatible for the future. I always felt so inept with computers before. But, now I am realizing that when I have someone to instruct me I don't feel so stupid anymore. I am less afraid to try new things and less afraid of 'breaking something' on the computer.

I have developed the same mentality for technology. I think that this course has really ellivated my confidence utilizing and attempting new technologies. Good luck in your future teaching.

I am so pleased you feel this way! I'm very happy to hear that you feel more comfortable using technology and want to learn more about it. Best wishes to you as you continue learning.

I am always surprised by how sensitive people actually think computers are. There is no reason to fret (that word always makes me laugh!) all computers do is compute series of 0's and 1's in the form of electricity. I am glad to hear that they are less intimidating for you. Just like learning a new language it is only once we get the courage to just try it and not worry about making mistakes that we truly begin overcome our seemingly daunting task.
