Week of Jan. 15-22





In response to our readings I chose to write about Ch.1. Mainly about the progress of technology. More specifically about wireless networks. Seeing as I am on a small vacation over the long holiday, writing this only because of the hotels wi-fi. Honestly, I was worried about not being able to complete this assignment because we are staying in a new hotel we have not stayed in before. I am so pleased that they have wireless and I do not have to miss anything. I feel that it is far away, if ever, that there will be an end to the progree and changes of technology. I can still remember when I didn't have a computer. Now I don't know where I would be without mine! As of checking in to the hotel I have; checked my email accounts, completes homework assignments, downloaded music and mapquested palces we are going tomorrow! My goodness, what would I have done without my laptop! I also think that wireless internet would be great for schools to have. this would allow students and teachers various places to access the internet throughout the school building, their desks, music for a performance in the gym, a powerpoint for a PTA meeting in the lunchroom. some schools that I have visited have wireless access. However, my school doesn't. I feel like wireless access in schools will in the future be like a Cd player; it is accessable to many classes.


We are supposed to add a photo and I already miss my dogs!!!!!!

I also agree that wireless internet will be in the future of our schools. Chalkville Elementary, where I teach, has wireless internet in 'select' locations only right now. Our technology support teacher is trying to get the whole school wireless though. I am curious to see how many schools in the Birmingham area have wireless internet.
