The first chapter in this book introduced me to the idea of the digital student and the digital generation. I found this interesting because children today are much more acquainted with technology especially computers compared to even when I was in elementary school. Children today, know about computers and email and use it regularly. I also found the ARCS Motivational Model interesting in this chapter. Captivating the students and catching their attention is very important with teaching.
Since the last class, I have started my practice test for Windows XP. I do not think I have gained new knowledge about using Windows because I am very familiar with it. I did however, learn about blogging. I have never used a blog or heard of any one else using one before this class. It is a great idea for this class so we all can stay on track.
Outside of this class, I am Homecoming Chair for my sorority. We have been using the internet and emails a lot during the process of planning our homecoming. We have many deadlines of things we have to email in to those in charge and I also have to update my sorority with details as well as email our homecoming partners.
