Survey Reflection

     After taking this survey I was able to notice that I do not have too much experience with technology.  I do not even own my own laptop or computer.  In order for me to be able to keep up with the students I will be teaching, I will need to become familiar with the new types of technologies that are used in different generations.  I do however spend an average amount of time on  my cellphone, which is able to connect to email and social media.
     One of the strengths I had noticed was that the only “up-to-date” technology I am familiar with is social media.  Looking at this through an educational standpoint I think I might be able to use that to my advantage throughout my teaching career.  Since I will become a high school teacher, and most high schoolers are also familiar with social media, I can use social media in ways of communicating with my students through an educational way.
   

Keeping Your Social Media Employer-Friendly

Weaknesses I need to work on are becoming familiar with different blogging sites, presentation applications, and spreadsheets.  By constantly using different technologies that are new to me will help me get used to the functions and way they work.  I will then be able to use blogs and presentations in my lessons easier.  Using blogs will also help me engage with my students outside of the classroom.
