What I found most interesting from reading everyones posts was how similar people's were to mine. I thought I was the only one that was new to Excel but it ends up that a lot of people were. I also liked reading the random thoughts other people write about like football, and stressful classes, and what they did that weekend. It's a really fun way to communicate with your classmates.
I want to learn how to use a Mac computer as my next project. I also want to learn more about Picture software and how to make picture slide shows and set music to them. One of my friends did this and it was really cool. I also want to learn how to get rid of red eye since I seem to have it in every picture I take.
I wish to acheive my technology goals by keeping the skills I learned in this class sharp so I can use them when I teach in a few years. I am going to use PowerPoint in other classes and I know that I will just become more confident as time goes on. I am going to continue to work on Excel as well becasue it will definitly come in handy in the future.

A web based resources I have found to be very helpful is www.Askjeeve.com . I remember using this site in middle school but I didnt know just how useful it was. Not only can you ask any question and it will give you multiple websites with useful information, you can also get images of what you are searching for as well. It is similar to google but not as much junk shows up.
I decided to ask Where is Florida? Not only did I get information on Florida, I got a map of the U.S. as well as just Florida. You can also get Images of cities as well as city maps and listing of places like restaurants and entertainment venues.
Next I want to learn how to use a Mac computer as well as the different software that goes along with it. Lots of my friends have Mac's and the are very different from what I am used to, but they are growing rapidly in popualrity and I think it would be useful to know how to use one.
I might acheive my future educational technology goals by working together with friends to learn new software and program. I know I could teach my friends things about Power Point and Excel and I'm sure they could reciprocate and teach some things as well.
