Blog Setup Ed Tech

 In this class, I hope to gain a deeper understanding of how technology can be used to enhance learning and communication. I want to become more confident in using different online platforms and tools, not only for academic purposes but also for professional settings in the future. Since technology continues to play a huge role in education and the workplace, I believe the skills I learn here will help me collaborate more effectively and stay adaptable in an ever-changing digital world. I am especially interested in learning how to present information in clear, creative, and engaging ways.

In my prior educational experiences, I have used technology in several ways. Most of my classes have involved online platforms such as Canvas for assignments, quizzes, and discussions. I have also used programs like Microsoft Excel, Word, and PowerPoint to complete projects. During high school, I attended some virtual classes, which helped me learn how to manage my time and stay organized in an online learning environment. These experiences showed me both the advantages and challenges of using technology in education, and I hope to improve my skills even further in this class.

Outside of school, my personal learning network is shaped by the things I am passionate about. I enjoy learning about marketing, fitness, and travel. For these topics, I often use YouTube tutorials, podcasts, and blogs to expand my knowledge. I also rely on social media to connect with communities that share my interests and provide advice or inspiration. Offline, I learn a lot from conversations with peers, mentors, and family members who share their own experiences. Altogether, these resources give me a mix of perspectives and help me grow both academically and personally.
