Week 4 Reflection

Are you more comfortable composing documents online than longhand?

Yes.

Have you turned your "remembering" (phone numbers, meetings, and so on) over to a technology device?

Phone numbers, YES

Calendar, NO – I need visual picture for the month.

Do you go to meetings with your laptop, iPad, or tablet?

Depends, I still prefer to take notes with pen and paper.

Are you constantly connected? Is the Internet always on whether you are at home or work? Is your cell phone always with you?

Yes, phone always and usually computer.

How many different activities can you effectively engage in at

one time?

 Many, I have 3 young children.  I am a master of multi-tasking.

•Do you play video or computer games?

No, not any more.

What generational category do you fall in or are you a mixture of a few?

            I feel I am a mixture but I know I am boarding a digital immigrants a bit because I still have some “old-school” ways.

What and how do we need to change?

We really need to keep up with technology and provide ways for this to benefit our students.  It is going to change no matter what so it is something to embrace because it will only accelerate.  We have to compete with technology to keep things interesting!
