First Day of Education Technology

I assumed that if I ever wrote a blog it would be a review of the latest movie or some new record that just came out....instead I will be talking about the first day of my new class Educational Technology. Two words Education and Technology, it seems like a "no brainer", right? Well not exactly. We will be learning new technology but also re-wiring our expectations of what is considered technology. I am excited to learn new ways of thinking about technology....not only as a way to communicate or make like simpilar but the ethical implications of new technologies. The classroom is in the basement computer lab of the Education Building and each student has a computer where we can practice and apply these new technologies. The first day of class was busy but fun...as technology changes and progresses it becomes more numerous and common. We will be working with lots of new media and programs. I will keep you all posted as to my progress. Good night and good luck.
