All About Me

I am a nurse by trade, but ironically, I can not stand to watch surgeries, which is why I now work in the field of research.
Teaching has always been in my heart and it was a close tie between teaching and nursing when choosing what my undergraduate degree would be. Despite years of delaying returning back to school for teaching (because this will be my 2nd masters degree) I have now decided to move and let God lead the way. It brings me the greatest joy to see my own children learning new things and I want to be involved in helping other children learn as well. I also feel it is my responsibility to be involved in the teaching of children so that they can grow up to accomplish their God given purpose.
A majority of my work life revolves around using email, Microsoft word, Powerpoint, excel, the internet, etc. I also am a digital camera fiend so I tend to take lots of pictures of my family and have accomplished the ability to save the pictures on my computer. All that said, I am somewhat comfortable with technology, but admittedly I tend to only use the basics of all the programs. So I am hoping this class will give me insights on new ways (not just the basics) on how to better utilize technology, so that I can be a better teacher and keep my students interested in the curriculum.
