My Introduction to Integrating Technology into the Curriculum!!

Hi.  I'm Colby Hajec and I'm 22.  I'm classified as a Junior this year.  Who I am is a person that is extremely creative, a person who knows what she wants out of life.  The creative side of me is the part that deals with writing music, singing. I'm a model and I love to sow...  I love to go shoe shopping but it's a very expensive habit!  I also love to volunteer and ride horses.  But basically, who I am is my major which is English because if I didn’t have English in my life, then my life would have been completely out of sink because it would have been a travesty to not have a way of structure to live by, because who I am is structured and rule based.  Who I am is very literal and sarcastic, all at the same time because I’m completely unique.
 
There are multiples of ways that I can see technology integrated in the classroom.  I can see students having the notes on their laptop on there desk and them projecting the notes up on the wall from their personal laptop.  I believe that having technology in the classroom is a good and a bad idea cause kids can get into a lot more trouble then they usually would because kids these days are extremely technology savy but they can be more engaged to learn because of the technology at hand.  I have the feeling that one of these days in the near future, that all technology is eventually going to be holographic and document sharing will only be threw the cloud and not using any form of USB.

My goals in this class is to keep my grades up high, learn many different types of applications that deals with technology making things easier in the classroom so that the students would be more engaged then they ever have been before, and to learn how to integrate it into the style of teaching that I would like to do in my high school class that I'll be teaching.  I hope to learn many different ways of teaching students by technology because kids these days are extremely into technology like computers, video games, and many, many more.
