Faster than a hungover undergrad. Able to read entire textbooks in a single semester...she is GradGirl! She is...me for that matter.
Hello, world! I am a graduate student at the fantastic University of Central Florida. GO KNIGHTS! In addition to wearing proudly my black and gold, I am furthering my education as an elementary school teacher and working toward my Masters of Education. This spring semester I am being forced - er, encouraged to keep a blog as a medium for turning in my assignments as well as furthering my technology literacy. What the heck is that? Well, it's a fancy, intellectual way of saying that I will be gaining not only a better understanding of technology, but becoming better adept at utilizing it effectively and at discussing and teaching it.
I expect I'll mainly be interacting with my fellow EME 5050ers. (That's the course subheading and number.) But who knows? Maybe some of you out there are just really jazzed about technology and its use in the field of education! In any case, I'm looking forward to some readership (oo, I'm already learning the vernacular!) and comments.
Happy 2011! Here goes nothing....
Hello GradGirl! Looks like you are off to a great start. I'm one of those people you mentioned, "jazzed about technology and its use in the field of education", and look forward to hearing more about your experiences at UCF. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteBlogging is a great way to reflect on your work, and to learn from people who've been there before. I've learned an immense amount from blogging and have even gotten some job offers because of it. I look forward to hearing more about your journey!
