Blog Journal 10
I think that in my future career as a teacher, I will definitely use Excel. For one thing, if I am teaching in a school that does not have automatic online attendance, I will be able to use an excel spreadsheet to do it. I could also use data collection surveys as a way to see which topics my students would like to discuss or take surveys on ideas for a holiday party. I could also use Excel to create a budget to present to the administration of the school for a field trip or event.
One topic that I found the most interesting out of the rest when reading the blogs of my classmates was the topic of Twitter. It was very interesting to me to read about their opinions because many of them were different from my own. I personally did not like using Twitter, but it was also new to me. It was interesting to see that my classmates did like it and were comfortable using it because they used it regularly in their personal lives.
A new technology related skill that I would like to learn how to do is actually create a budget through excel. I want to learn how to do this because I currently work in an elementary school and as a counselor I have to plan events. My boss gives me a financial limit to how much I am able to spend on the event, and my last one was $500. I then had to create a budget demonstrating to her what all of the money was being put towards, or an itemized list. I did not really know the best way to do this at the time, so I kind of messed it up and it was not as organized as I would have liked it to be. I think that learning to use excel to create a budget would be much more helpful in making it coherent and organized.
