Blog #0 Learning Styles

My previous experiences using technology includes a variety of different experiences.  For example, for everyday use, I use my phone for communication with others and for social media sites. I also use my phone to take pictures and to send emails.  In the classroom, I use my laptop to conduct research and to access online textbooks.  During my high school career, I was required to use an iPad.  I had access to books, note taking apps, and classroom websites.

I hope to learn how to properly use different types of technological tools and how to apply them as a future educator.  As an aspiring teacher, I must learn how to use smart boards and other technology to aid my students in the learning environment. I am excited to experience newer technologies such as 3D printers and virtual realty.  Technology is always changing, therefore, I hope to learn how to adapt and adjust to the changing technological lifestyle.

I learned that my learning style depends more on an active environment rather than reflective meaning that I learn better by participating.  I also prefer a sequential learning style.  I like to take things one step at a time rather than seeing the whole picture.  I am pretty balanced in verbal and visual learning as well as intuitive and sensing.
