To be more precise...
I will soon be graduating from Bethel University with a Communication and Language Arts 5-12 degree. I hope to teach high school English somewhere in the Twin Cities area. In order to equip young people with the skills for success in the post-secondary world, I feel that they should be provided with an adequate amount of technology along with their education. Knowing how to manipulate technology to one's advantage is critical in this day and age. In addition to educating students on technology, I believe that technology can be used to help students learn content material in a more engaging and interactive manner.
