The EME2040 Experience - Blog Journal 0
My name is Tina. I am a college student studying History and Classics. I plan on attending law school after I graduate. In my free time, I enjoy reading, playing piano, and running. I like learning new things such as cooking and exploring with my friends.
I am not an Education major or minor, so I have not taken any other courses in education technology. However, as a student I have used technology to give presentations to the class and share what I researched. I have used PowerPoints, short videos, online visuals, and audio clips to present information to my peers and help teach them. For one of my courses I created a podcast episode, and in another course my group and I filmed and edited a video.
In this class, I hope to learn more about what goes into preparing lessons for K-12 students. Because I have never taken an education course before, I want to better understand the perspective of teachers and learn some of the methods for utilizing technology to share information. Even if I do not become a teacher, these skills can be useful in my college career and beyond. Learning the strategies teachers use in dealing with technology can help me more effectively present information in my classes and in my future work environments.
Hi, Tina. Interesting post, I am not sure what a History and Classics major pertains, but it sounds intriguing coming from a person who has always admired history. I am a Humanities Communications major, therefore your statement about editing videos for class relates with me. Editing videos is one of my favorite things to do. Thanks for sharing with us about yourself. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment! For my History major I take history classes on variety of different time periods and areas of the world. Classics is the study of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome.
