My name is Cristina Azizeh and I teach grades 9-12 in Washington State. I teach Personal Finance, Accounting 1-4, Business Law, Computer Essentials, and I run our Student Store. I am currently working on my Master's degree through Walden University with a specialization of Integrating Technolgy in the Classroom.
This is the first "technology" course in the program. I used to think I was pretty tech-savvy and that I was keeping up pretty well with the students.....now I know I am NOT!! I am feeling a bit overwhelmed with all of the information in the first week of the course, but I am ready to dig in my heels and gain some knowledge! If all else fails, I will simply ask my 13 year old daughter to help me out! :)
Your blog contains some interesting comments. BTW, at the end of this course you will be running rings around your 13 year old daughter!
ReplyDeleteThe class has already taken over me. I drove my 13 year old to school today (for some reason she asked me to take her to school). She is really into her Social Studies class right now and they have been studying the travesty in Darfur. I told her that she should start a blog and start researching it more. I mentioned she could connect with many other students who were also passionate about Darfur from all over the world! She then mentioned her senior project....she's in 7th grade! I was so impressed that she was planning so far ahead! Small victories!!
