Ten years from now??

As an education major, I see myself working in a classroom, married, having one child and loving every minute of it. I hope that my dream of opening a special needs day care works out. I see myself living in Louisiana, with my husband, working at a small country elementary school and helping coach volleyball at the highschool. I am not sure what will be happening in 10 years but what I listed above would be wonderful. The one thing I hope to succeed at is making a difference in someone's life including my one. I want to be a positive person and try to have a good impact on others lives.

Ten years is a long ways away, but I feel that if I keep my goals now in front of me, my head held high, and I don't let people bring me down, I will be able to succeed and have an exciting future.

Response to Video

After watching the video, I felt that everything I've been discussing in my technology classes was wrapped into this film. The title of film introduces the content not the actual format and I just think the title incorporated all of the information within the film. I think the Web 2.0 is a great way to introduce yourself, complete research, and connect everyone to everyone. I am not sure if it could have an affect on a workforce, but if could be a good introduction to what is possible for them to have or do in the future. I believe when the video is saying rethink everything, we must open our eyes to the endless possibilities of communication, connection to companies, and the research information.

First Day January 9th

Hey Class!!
My name is Mandie Stewart. I was born and raised in the tiny town of Simpsonville, SC. I transfered to Clemson my Sophmore year after playing volleyball at Anderson University. I left the university because of their views and how horrible the volleyball program was. I am so ready to graduate and start teaching, I love little children and I can't wait to try and have an impact on their lives. I am extremely outgoing and say how I feel, but I feel that this class will be a little challenging for me because I have a difficult time expressing myself in writing or saying what needs to be said. My email is astewa3@clemson.edu if you ever need to get ahold of me about homework or the group projects. Hope everyone had a great first day!!
