I am already aware on how the computer work. But in my part not mainly an aide for teaching but for entertainment and communication. In educational technology subject, it enhance my computer learning in more purposeful way. In some programs like excel, I use excel for business purposes before and its normal for me to use formulas,and now in edtech 2 my teacher teach us into more deeper one. But the most thrilling part in this subject is being the pioneering students in the college of education here in the UB to do online class. At first engaging in this kind of activity is not easy since many are hesitant to join the evolution of teaching process. I know we are the experimental class in which they will know weither this one is a succes or failure. Using blogspot as a means of establishing an online class is not easy one because most of us are not familiar on how blogspot work. In my part it took me many hours to discover and learn how blogspot suppose to work. My blogspot is my link to the future. Creating this blogspot allow me to store my knowledge that i could impart to my future students.
