Ed Tech - Week One

I've just started my second semester at UTT. Apparently, there are new subjects to be done at every semester and my most interesting one this time around happens to be my Educational Technology class. For the first class (and only thus far), my teacher happened to be about a half hour late to class. He was very apologetic and humbly welcomed us to the course. He seems stern, but pleasant. During the class, he explained what Educational Technology was all about and the ways we can benefit from it. We also discussed what was expected to be done this semester, including the course work and assessments. We were also expected to create a blog for ourselves...this should be interesting.
I've never done a blog before and unfortunately, I wasn't too excited about doing it either. But I figured that it shouldn't be so bad, and it being a new year and all, I should have an open mind and just focus on the positive aspects of doing this assignment. I'm looking forward to what this class has to offer and what I would gain from it all.
