Teaching and Technology
Ever
since I was a little girl, I loved to play pretend school with my cousins. I
would be the teacher, of course, and we would sit for hours doing fake
assignments, playing games and handing out prizes. I have always loved helping people learn something new and helping them realize
the potential they have to accomplish things. I have always been drawn to kids,
whether I am in a grocery store, church or school I always seem to find myself
talking to little kids. I have a passion for them and it brings joy to my soul
when a kid smiles because they have learned something new. I have been involved
with many children activities in schools and churches and my passion for kids
has continued to grow. I am very excited to be in the Education Program at NU
because I am anxious to put my passion to a good use.
Considering
technology, I grew up in a small town called Othello where technology resources
in school were not a priority. Eventually, in my middle school years, I was
introduced to the Elmo and in high school the smart board. I do not know how to
run those really well but I have some experience with them. I am willing to
learn what ever is out there concerning technology in education and also
technology in general. I know this class is going to be a great learning tool
for my future.
