I am a senior in my studies as a secondary English education major and I enjoy aerobic exercise, watching movies, listening to almost any music other than country and bluegrass and reading (mostly auto/biographies). I currently work with techonology at the Learning Resource Center here in the School of Education and have varied amounts of experience in Microsoft Office programs,I Movie, Adobe Acrobat, classroom equipment and I have also worked with the Novell network that is used in Joseph R. Pearson Hall and Robinson. My goal is to be placed in a PDS high school in Kansas City for my professional year, get my masters in Educational Counseling in Austin, Texas (UT) while working as a full time Language Arts teacher wherever they will have me. This class will give me vital knowledge for my classroom because studies show that students become more engaged in the subject mattter when they are active participants. Technology allows this participation in creative ways that may be used in and out of the classroom. However, I have had boring experiences with techonology recently in the college classroom. A student teacher used powerpoint with his speech written out verbatim yet refused to put it up on blackboard as a blackmail to get us to come to class. I would like to learn more about creating and using our own webpage. I am interested in anything that could be used to allow the students to interact with eachother and the teacher inside and outside of the classroom. I do NOT have facebook but may be reached at c_nelson_85@yahoo.com
