4. I love talking to people and helping people when they need me. I enjoy running and reading as my hobbies and I also love to color :) I am a fun person and I think I would add a lot of energy and enthusiasm to the classroom. I love helping people achieve new things and I enjoy teaching.
5.It needs to be a friendly environment and a place that I trust with people I trust.
6. I am a good student, but I need to work hard at it. I need to prepare myself and study hard in order to get good grades, it doesn't just come naturally to me. I am a visual learner but I also learnn well when i do things hands on. I like to ask questions if I do not understand what we are learning.
7. I am a responsible student and I try my hardest at everything I do. Sometimes i procrastinate, but I always manage to get the job done in the best way. I am somewhat of a perfectionist and it shows in my work.
8. I think the most important was probably either the computer or the cell phone.
9. Many technologies affect my life today. Starting from a long time ago, the light bulb has changed our lives along with washers and dryers and telephones. Now, technology that is important to us are cell phones, computers, ipods, treadmills and television.
10. I use many technologies in a day. Throughout my day I text or make phone calls on my cell phone and I also use it for my alarm clock and my calendar. After a long day of classes I like to workout and I typically run on a treadmill and I listen to my ipod. When I have homework the majority of it is online or I need the computer for it.
11. I think some technology is used excessively such as television and cell phones and video games. I think many people and also many children are addicted to playing video games and watching TV when they could be doing something productive with their time. I also feel that kids under the age of 13 should not have a cell phone. If they have a phone that is specifically for emergencies only, that is fine, but for a third grader to have a cell phone that they text on I think is a problem.
12. I think in this class, we need to learn a lot about technology, but have fun doing it. And I think we should actively participate in things, and one goal of mine is to not procrastinate. I would like to avoid lectures and get to know my classmates in order to have good discussions.
13. What is your favorite topic to teach? and what was the best grade you have taught?
