Hello world my name is Natasha,
Acro-yogi, dancer, child whisperer and language enthusiast. I am a lifelong learner and seek self-actualization through peak experience from skill derived over steady and frequent practice of my chosen activities. I flow through my days with awareness of connection, trying to stay in the present but inevitably slipping into future planning and doing what must be done in the busy day to day.
This assignment is forcing me to think of expectations for a class while one of my principle life beliefs is not to have any. I suppose since this class is titled Language Skills through Information and Communications Technology that we will be learning how to teach using online tools as well as acquire resources in order to teach online courses. Just because we are millennials and are the first generation to grow up with a computer in the home, doesn't mean we are experts in the use of technology. Although I somewhat know my way around a PC and have written some simple html code in the past, I have never actually uploaded videos nor know where to look for teaching materials for teachers or students. I hope this course will help me find fluency in technology in case I find myself teaching online courses in the future. Even if I don't, I believe it would be useful and relevant to include technology in the modern classroom.
