When I was younger, I wasn’t introduced to a lot of technology until I was about eight years old. I got my first cellphone which was a Nokia, and I remember not knowing what texting was especially with that phone. A few years later, I got an Ipad and laptop and was quickly adapting to the new technology. Today, I would say I am up to date with all the latest technology, but obviously there is always room to learn more ways to utilize technology.
I hope to learn more ways that technology can be used in the classroom to help improve education. From my observations at FSUS, the students utilize a lot more technology in K-5 than I ever did in Elementary School. It was amazing to see the students know exactly how to start up their computers and accurately use the smart board in the classroom. The current education system is becoming more and more technologically advanced and it’s good to keep finding more ways that it can be beneficial for the students.
The Learning Styles quiz really got me thinking and the questions were very intriguing. I have come to the realization that I am a visual learner and that I prefer factual information more than concepts or theories. This quiz helped me understand why I enjoy subjects like math because there’s one solution, but many ways you’re able to achieve it.
