I've never had a blog and for a while never really saw the use of them. They just seemed like Facebook or Twitter, but just a bit more creative. When I got into my Educational Technology class and was told about all of the things we would be doing and the websites we were going to use, I was very excited about it. I didn't see the relevance that something like Twitter would have with an elementary school classroom.
I like the idea of using new and trendy technological advances to communicate with parents and other teachers, and even students. I am looking forward to learning about all of the amazing ways to incorporate all of this into my everyday classroom setting. Now, let's face it. We all have some part of us that is just technology stupid. Myself, I try to keep up to speed with all of the latest and greatest fads that emerge in the technology world. Shamefully enough, I did not own a Twitter account until August, when I met a friend who convinced me to get one. This is also the same friend who lives by the phrase "If it ain't a Mac, I ain't using it", and is slowly trying to sway my PC love to a Mac. However, I think Microsoft is doing a good enough job at that. (Pun intended. Microsoft is TERRIBLE!)
