I am a digital immigrant.  Technology did not come natural to me.  It came kicking and screaming and pulling me into its arms.  I am a survivor of a techonlogy attack.  I am doing the best I can to "get with it" but it is moving faster than this old body can move.  I take classes all the time.  I am good at MS Office for the most part.  I am not good at excell math stuff.  I don't get it.  I just use a calculator.  I still print out my emails to read if they are long.  I don't know why I can't read them on the screen.  Maybe it is the bifocals that make it so hard.  I have to tip my head back to read.  I am learning to use the internet in creative ways instead of email and looking up my friends.  I know how to use AlphaSmart word processors.  I can publish with the best of you.  However,I don't do My Space or Facebook.  I think that is just to personal to post.  I do blog (obviously) but I haven't learned to vlog.  I know that I can podcast using a telephone instead of a digital recorder.  I want my students to learn that next year.  I actually got a cell phone when a police officer friend of mine told me I drive too far alone to be without one.  (Actually I got it because I weed eated my phone lines and I needed to call the phone company.  Did you know there aren't very many pay phones any more?)  I have a palm pilot but I quit using it because it made my purse heavy.  Now I hear you can do the same stuff on your phone.  I will have to up grade the darn thing.  I have a digital camera and I can download pictures.  However I don't know where it is. My phone takes pictures and I can send them to people if I want to now but they aren't very good.  I can roam the internet but I find that rather boring.  I like to play games on the computer but not online.  Computers just aren't natural to me.  I got mine when my youngest joined the Navy and went to sea.  The first time that happened I didn't have a computer and her sister got all the emails at work.  I got my first computer before she went to sea the second time.  I have never looked back.  Best investment I ever made.  She is going to sea again this winter and I will be able to keep in touch.  I love technology.
