Hey all!!
I don't know much about technology, however I always seem to be on my computer researching and googling everything I can think of. I love to learn and want to share this passion with children as a teacher! I am currently enrolled in the education program at the University of Tennessee. I am a Senior with a major in Psychology from Murfreesboro, TN. I love to hang out with my friends, dance, eat Mexican food, travel and read. And this is my story of technology integration.
We all know that feeling when you read a blog or something awesome on the internet, and think I could never do that. Well, the more I learn, the more I realize. I CAN! So, as I walk through Technology 486 at The University of Tennessee, this is where I will be posting my thoughts and hints about why integrating technology into our lives and classrooms is so important.
I expect to learn more about the importance of technology in an Elementary classroom and how to use the practical tools that will allow my students to learn through the internet. I expect to be able to use an interactive white board, create movies, make presentations, and learn to make these things fun and engaging for my future students. I am sure that I barely know the extent of what I have to learn! And I am ready to be schooled on the use of technology.
