Using MS Word

I have personally had alot of previous experience with all microsoft office products and Microsoft word is the one i have spent the most time. It is a very useful tool that can make anything from doing a flyer or invitation to writing a research paper for an english class. All of the teachers i have had up to this point have all been very savy with using powerpoint and projectors so i have also been exposed on the usefullness of it from the teaching prospective.
I would like to take out from this class all the stkills necessary to be completely effecient when using any program associated with Microsoft word. It would be very useful for me to use if and when i become a teacher i hope it will be a good way to display information and make it easy and fun for them to learn.

Blog #1

I personally believe that technology and the classroom if used correctly can exponentially increase the amount of knowledge that can be consumed by the students but also be taught more efficiently by the teacher or professor. I have personally had a lot of hands-on-experience with technology in the classroom. I remember in high school they offered several kinds of computer and technology related classes for example i took business technology three times, at different levels of intensity of course. They also offered computer programing and several digital design courses. The digital design courses enabled me to get a scholarship with now covers my full tuition at FSU. So from my point of view technology in the classrooms has only effected me in a very positive and constructive way.
When i become a teacher i will definitely incorporate a lot of technology which will make it easier for the students. I am sure that by the time i step into my career technology will have doubled so there will still be a lot of things regarding technology that i will have to keep up with the fast pace of technology. I just hope to learn the most about windows in this class because i use a Mac and every computer i have seen at a teachers desk has run on windows. So i just hope to become fluent in the language of technology to further my value as a educator of the youth.

MS Word creates a blog posting?
