After reading the articles about Zac, I think I would have done the same thing as he did. I agree that with the technology world we live in today, everyone should have the capability of understanding and utilizing the computer. I personally am not very comfortable with a computer. I have in fact taken several classes on line. I do get excited when I am able to figure something out when working on the computer. Until class last week, I did not know that the symbol meant a personal webpage.
There were many terms throughout the article that I was not familiar with. I am interested in finding more information about these terms. For instance, tags, hashtag and diligo. I had even asked my twenty-five year old daughter about these two words and she did not know about them. I like other students know how to type in google to get information. It is interesting to see that there are other ways to research and find information that one might be acquiring about.
I  believe there are many teachers who do not have the knowledge needed to teach these skills. Myself being one of them. I get very nervous when working with computes. I now feel more comfortable than previously. I am determined to learn all that I can about using the computer. I want to be able to teach my students how to utilize the web so that they con be productive in their studies. I was excited to read about the Common Core state standards requiring students to be able to manage web-based materials. I know that I have a lot of work to do so that I can be a teacher who posses the skills to teach children about our technology today.
