I can do this

I haven't been fond of computers since I last worked on dial-up internet service in 2001. Computers were just a tool to compose a syllabus or worksheets on Microsoft Word. Honestly, before taking this course, I almost wanted to back out. I'm glad I didn't. Part of the ESLRs at my school that motivates me to learn about computer technology is 'adapt to changing times'. After over a decade of teaching, I realize that it is no longer a choice to becoming computer literate. Each year students are becoming more tech savvy. As a teacher, you must stay ahead or at least be on top of things- this is one of those things. This course is a blessing because it provides me the foundation I can build upon to be a more confident computer technology consumer/user. Anyhow, I think for thirty days I would like to create a website/webpage that students, parents, and the local community at least can open and somehow interact on the latest fine art development at my school. It would be cool to skype to other middleschool art classes locally and abroad to share ideas and such. Wow! This is my first blog. Thank you.

  1. Next week you'll get to view some of the different web publishing options available. You may be able to register a site and start designing it in class. Next week could be day 1 of your 30 days.
