The begining of 3401
I am Theresa. I am a student at the University of West Georgia and I am in the early childhood curriculum and if everything goes according to plan I will be an elementary teacher graduating December 2009. I am taking this class not only as a requirement but also to help become more organized and tech savvy to help my students better. I feel that this class would be more beneficial if i had not already had a computer class that has made me more familiar with the whole tech world. I believe that teachers need to know that technology should not be what teaches students. Technology is simply an aid to help teachers become better at relating with students and to help them stay engaged. I hope to become even more familiar with technical attributes that will help me become a better teacher through this class. My father is a VERY tech savvy guy and him being so has lead for me to be on the edge of technology right there with him. I believe my strengths are being able to adapt and quickly catch on with the constantly changing technology world. My weakness is not being able to afford this constantly changing world.

Good luck on becoming an Early Elementary teacher. I believe your weakness of not being able to afford to keep up with ever-changing technology is also one of the problems our schools have (as well as many of us!).
I agree with not being able to afford to keep up with the rapidly change tech world! I also agree that teachers shouldn't let techonology alone teach their students.
