A lot sure has changed since I was last in a formal learning environment. The Web was in its infancy, nobody brought their own computers to school, and I don't think anybody really knew what a blog was.
Blogging and all the other amazing technology that has appeared since my last education adventure has really changed how education works. A blog seems like a great way to reinforce classroom concepts or to emphasize or focus on 2 or 3 key areas. Blogging can also be a method to interact with students who may have missed a class or need some additional assistance with an assignment. I can also see using a blog as a method of disseminating information such as providing some interesting and unique literacy links, or pointing students and colleagues toward new trends in teaching and education.
What hasn't changed for me is how much I enjoy learning. The first two weeks have been amazing and I am really looking forward to everything there is to learn about becoming a professional educator. Of particular interest, having spent the past 15 years in the Information Technology sector, will be learning about the various ways that technology is and can be used in the learning environments
