Embarking a Technological Journey

As a part of my master's classes, I have been instructed to create a blog. In the past, I have always been incredibly leery of writing about my job and posting it all on the internet. Educators are looked upon as role models in this society and everything we say or do is under scrutiny. Many educators have lost jobs for posting something on a social networking site, and I have felt as though a blog could have the same issues. However, here I am, starting my journey.

Here is a little about me for those of you out there that I do not know. Currently, I am 27 years old and have been teaching sixth grade for 5 years at a school in a suburban district. I began working towards my master's degree this past January at Walden University in integrating technology into the classroom. Although I am incredibly excited about it, I am also very nervous. Technology has always been a scary thought in my mind and I chose this path because I know I need to be able to work with it and continue learning all I can because it changes constantly.

As this is my first posting, I am unsure of what I could be writing about in the future. So, I leave you with this question: what educational topics would you like to read about?
