All about me

Hi my name is Matthew Schuster, I am currently a 2nd semester freshman at Edinboro University of Pennsylvania. My major is Secondary Education in Physics. I am currently 18, my birthday is on February 16th.
Technology is a great tool for learning because with the internet people have access to endless amounts of information right at their finger tips. I made this blog in my Technology for teaching and learning class for the purpose of learning how to utilize technology for when I become a teacher. Hopefully with the skills I learn in this class I will be able to incorporate technology into my classroom one day. I feel like technology is a good way to help teach students because you can find many different examples of an idea.
I believe that teachers are the foundation of our country, because all citizens go through at least some schooling. If teachers can connect with students, they can become well informed and logical thinking members of society and can contribute to our nation. I think teachers are the keystone of our country and that is why I want to become a teacher.
