21 Things-Getting Started

I have proven, once again, that the title of 'technologically challenged' is one I wear well.  It only took me one week to set up my blog!  I thought I had set it up that first night of class, however, whenever I have tried to post a blog I was told my URL address was not valid!  The problem was, every word I tried was supposedly already taken!  You would not believe some of the words I tried, and I do not believe they are already a URL add. for someone else.  Anyway, Ron suggested I begin again so I did, and success has occurred.

What I am looking forward to is learning all of the things I possibly can from this class so that I can pass them along to my classroom.  I am the perfect example of, "If I can do it, anyone can". As a teacher I have seen how many students still struggle with literacy.  I began my Master's degree in Education Reading, because I believe it is at the core of learning and living.  The more things that I can introduce to my students that will catch their interest to learn, the better chance they will have to become literate members of society.  Technology can be a great tool for many of them, and the more things that I can introduce them to, the more opportunities they will have to experience the newest technology and make it part of their lives.

I am hoping that not everything will come as hard as setting up this blog; however, if I keep experiencing difficulties, I know that I have the world's most patient instructor to help me along.
