Technology Experience

Technology is something that controls our daily lives, whether we notice or not. Growing up in a technological society, I have a lot of experiences with it. But I wouldn’t say I am an expert. I have experience with Word, PowerPoint, and Excel as well as the google drive systems. There is a lot I know how to do, but I still use google and my tech-savvy father often when it comes to help with my computer. My knowledge is very broad, where I have minor experience with lots of different programs.

Learning Expectations 

Throughout my time in this course I hope to learn as much as I can about technology. I hope to become more confident in my abilities when it comes to working through technological issues that arise. Lastly, I hope to become well versed in many different computer programs. This will help me in my future classroom and ultimately benefit my future students. 

Learning about my Learning Style 

The sides that I leaned towards in my learning style quiz were active, sensing, visual, and sequential. Based off these four words, I was not surprised at all. I have always been someone who learns best when seeing something visually or physically mapped out. Something that I didn’t know was that I was a sequential learner. Once seeing this result and reading through it, I wasn’t surprised either. This means that I prefer to learn by doing things in steps in order to find the end result. One thing that also surprised me was I was only slightly leaning towards the ‘active’ learner side. So, I guess this means I learn actively and reflectively depending what the circumstance is.
