Hey!

I haven’t got my new computer yet.  I have to commend my school divsion they are now offering to pay for half the lap-top and I pay for the other half (on payroll deductions) as long as I use my new computer as my main work computer.  That way I would  give up my desk top in  my office and it would go into a classroom.   They are piloting this with 8 people in the district right now, but are going to make this deal available to all employees in mid Dec.  I  think this is a very creative way of getting teachers to become more computer literate, thier plan is to get the computers in the hands of the teachers and naturally thier skills with become stronger as they now have the computer to experiment with at home. As far as the course, I am going to try to use yugma this week and do a trial pod cast.  I am starting to feel like I am falling behind,  it just takes me so long to catch on to things and then I find that if I don’t practice my new skills I lose them.  I think this is because the whole tech thing is very intimidating to me.   Wish me well on my assignments this week.

See Ya!
