Hello everyone,
My name is Eric Cline and I am a junior now at FSU. I just transferred to FSU after getting my AA from TCC. I am originally from Oviedo, Florida but after a few things happened I ended up moving to New Smyrna Beach, Florida in the 4th grade. I plan to major in history with a minor in business or communication. I do not have a clear picture what I would like to do but hopefully I figure it out soon and can start to advance through college and through the rest of my life.
I haven't been in many educational setting but some examples i could think of would be using a powerpoint presentation in front of a class. I've had projects where i was given a topic and was supposed to teach the class about the topic, so using technology made that easy by putting together a presentation. Also, theres so many apps now that can make presentations more enjoyable and unique to make people more interested in learning. Another amazing way I've used technology to learn is through Kahoots or clicker games, it makes it very interesting to learn and the competitive edge it brings make it more exciting.
Personal Learning networks that I've been using are things like YouTube, Twitter, Instagram. YouTube is technically a one stop shop for all of your questions. The broadness of YouTube nowadays is so immense it's one of the most helpful tools out right now. Twitter is very nice for keeping up with current events around the world and is probably the easiest form of news and communication on the internet right now. Most the applications I use daily support my learning because I use them to answer all questions I have in a very small amount of time.
Im looking forward to learning about educational technology!
hey Eric, I'm also from Florida and I'm a senior here at FSU. Using PowerPoints has also been extremely beneficial to me as well. it allows me to condense a large amount of information into something easy to read. I also use YouTube as a one stop shop. it teaches you anything you could possibly think of because more than likely someone has already done it and posted it online.
