Learning Expectations for this Course

My learning expectations for the TPTE 486 course, is that I am excited to be learning how to utilize and and incorporate technology in the classroom, however, I am discouraged because I am learning how to us a Mac computer and learning how to access all that Google has to offer. I feel as though I am already off tract because I don't know how to do certain things on a Mac. I am definitely trying and willing to learn because I do want to purchase a Mac laptop at some point and I know that a lot of schools have incorporated them into the classrooms. So I am excited but nervous. I have already learned a lot within the two classes because I have never heard of google docs and I think it's awesome. I expect by the end of this course to understand and be able to use the multiple things that Google offers which includes doc, blogger, pictures. ect. I am glad that we are learning not only how to use and access these things but also understand how they work and why they are important. I expect to gain ideas for lessons and also ways in incorporating different technology from grades K-12. Overall, I just expect to learn the things that will benefit me as a teacher, in today's society, technology is booming and our students may know more about things than we do, so i just want to be current with the technology to engage my students and get them involved in their learning process. I am looking forward to what this class has to offer and I honestly can't wait to learn more than what I expect.
