first blog

   My name is Jamal and I am a senior ready to graduate school and then move on to more school. I plan on being a mental health counselor and the track to that is with Grad school. Some fun facts about me are I enjoy playing sports like basketball and video games like smash brothers.I also like relaxing at home and of course sleeping. I have never made a blog before so this is certainly a new experience for me but I do like trying new things at least once so this should be a fun and interesting time for sure.

    My prior experience using technology in the classroom was just limited to basic things such as a laptop to use word or to make power points. Overall my use of technology in the classroom is also rather low usage  besides just using those two things and an even more limited use of Excel which is strange seeing as we are in the age of technology but I am interested in seeing what this eme2040 class can teach me.

    

    What I hope to learn however is how to become more skillful in using technology for educational purposes. I plan on going to Grad school so having this class right before I graduate and learn how to effectively use these Tools is really beneficial to me. I hope to make the most of the lessons taught in this class. Such as being more proficient in Excel and learn any tips or tricks when working in Word. I am glad you stayed to read my first blog and I hope we can all learn something new in this class.
