First Class

First Class
I was really impressed with the Illinois Tech plans. I do not believe that these plans are required in Iowa, yet!!!! Regardless of the state and the state requirements, I believe that technology is the key for increasing student motivation and reaching out to all levels of academic ability in the classroom. With this in mind, as a future administrator the financial aspect of keeping up with modern technology and the vast potential for cyber-crimes (cyber-bullying, hacking, etc…) ushers in new worries and concerns. I am looking forward to learning about blogs, wikis and other modern tools. Technology does not always cooperate with me, so I am hoping to come away from this course with knowledge and skills that will make my life easier in this age of "bits and bytes".
