= WELCOME! =

As one of the members of Wiki 5.0, I would like to share my hopes for the course and my use of technology. Of course, like everyone, I think that technology is GREAT! However, I feel as I am not able to keep up with the constantly changing trends, cloud computing, wikis, blogs, twitter, tweeting, etc. The list could go on forever. I am a self-proclaimed English buff, and former middle school English teacher. I enjoy how technology provides me with access to information and is able to help others write and share knowledge experience and ideas.

While I am not teaching while I am completing my degree, this does not stop me from thinking of the wonderful things that I can create before I return back to the classroom. While in school, I have been wildly impressed with the OWL that Purdue put together, and even the writing program that UMUC has placed online is a great use to the students. I hope that I am able to create something as useful (maybe not as grand but as useful) to help students in their writing ventures during school. I believe that with most of the communication happening in a computer, print and text format, we all need any additional resource that can help us succeed.

With all that said, I am now ready to start my engine, to a rewarding term!



Enjoy!
