I rely on technology to get through the day at home, school, and work (alarm clock, cell phone, microwave, cooker, refrigerator). There is no area in which technology has not impacted me, and I use technology to monitor my daily activities. Its global availability excites me, and no one...

Hello everyone. I am delighted to have you visit my blog. I am still figuring out who I am, and I have plenty of time to do so. My interest in teaching stems from a visit to my mother’s place of work, where I found her experience fulfilling and...

It has been a fun spring semester. I wish my classmates best of luck in their program. Cheers!...

It was fascinating to hear the heated debate between the two teams on this topic. Teachers are indeed supposed to educate and promote social justice. These advocates, hope to build a society in which people have equal access to resources and receive fair treatment regardless of their race, gender,...

Both teams’ presentations wowed me. I was really torn between whether schools should no longer teach skills easily carried out by technology or not, as both teams gave very compelling and convincing arguments. Students in the 21st-century are digital natives. They have grown up with technology, and it’s woven...

Both debate teams made compelling arguments. Following the presentation, my opinion on the subject shifted, and I was no longer sure whether it was a yes or a no during the post-vote. People and time have evolved. As a result, various industries are increasingly reliant on technology to meet...
