My first post

So I'm taking a technology class for my major so that I can know how to use technology in the classroom...whenever I finally get out there...and one of the assignments is that we have to create a blog! So here I am!! :)

I like technology...I spend actually quite a bit of time using technology, usually my computer; I rarely go anywhere without it...and my family makes fun of me a little for that...mostly my brother ;) From this course I hope to learn how to better apply what I know about technology into the classroom setting so that I can better help the students that I teach learn in a more effective way that is appropriate for their level of learning.

For my extra gadgets, I chose to put a slide show of sunsets on one side (which may be changed in the future to pictures of my family and friends), and a headline news gadget at the top. I chose these because I love pictures, and I like to see things and share things that make me happy, and, for the headlines, well, I don't read the news a whole lot, I usually just catch what I see on-line; so I figured I'd put the news here so that other people and myself can know what's going on around the world :)
