Teaching and Technology: A Student Teacher Perspective

I’m feeling guilty. On account of the fact that this is the first update I have made to my blog since its inception about two weeks ago. It is not through having a lack of time to write or material to discuss. It’s merely the issue of remembering to do it. It’s the same problem I’ve had with the other blogs I have created at various points of life. I just never seem to get around to updating them.

I think with this blog, one of the issues has been an uncertainty as to exactly what I should be posting about, and if I should add thoughts outside of class content and innovations or not.

For example, today I stumbled upon a link to a new web browser which Google has created: <url=”http://www.google.com/chrome/?hl=en&brand=CHMG&utm_source=en-hpp&utm_medium=hpp&utm_campaign=en#”>Google Chrome</url>. While I haven’t downloaded and tested out the software, some of the innovations they have created for this new browser look interesting to me. I think I shall be sticking to Firefox, but it might be interesting for others to look at.

I think, for me, it is just a matter of remembering I have this blog where I can share these things with the world when they come to my attention. Also not being lazy. But then again, sometimes it’s just a matter of being busy with other things and never remembering to come back and write a blog post later on when my time is free.

Clearly blogging is not as easy as it seems to be. It’s one thing to HAVE a blog, another thing completely to update it regularly and continue to use it for the purpose of its creation. I hope I can work on this and not simply use this blog to do the minimum amount required for the university course it has been created as a part of. Only time shall tell, but we’ll see…
