1. I would like to say that I am pretty experienced when talking about technology. At home my dad is a website creator, so I have picked up little things here and there from watching him work. Also when I was in high school I took a computer class. In this class we had to learn the basics of some of the commonly used programs on a computer. In this class we learn how to use all of the Microsoft Office tools, like PowerPoint and Excel. I am also very experienced in using and writing in online blogs, as this is not my first one.

2. There are very many different things that I would like to gain from taking this class. One of the biggest things that I hope to learn from this class is how to use the technology thats available. I want to learn how to really make the technology useful in my profession. I would like th learn how to use these technologies in classrooms. I want this technology to be useful during class time and also make it so that it can further the knowledge gained from each lesson plan.

3. After taking the questionnaire, the results where accurate to what I believed that I was. I know for a fact that I am completely an active listener. It is so much easier for me to grasp a concept or whatever is being taught if I am actively participating in it. If I do something I am much more likely to learn it and contain the information. Another thing that I l;earned from the questionnaire is that I am in the middle of being a verbal and visuale learner. When learning something new it makes it easier if I can see pictures or diagrams of it, as well has having it explained fully in words.
