Class Expectations/Background knowledge

    Well, I honestly didn't really know what to expect when walking into this class, but the few thoughts I did have you could say were a bit off. I like the idea of having a portfolio by the end and teaching us ways to keep up with all this technology, rather than just teach us what their is here and now. Lets face it, no one likes to sit in a class while the prof tries to figure out how to do something as simple as turn on the projector. I hope in my case I'm not having to ask a classroom full of second graders how to work something, since they seem to be right on top of all this. I'm excited but at the same time kind of nervous for all of this, hopefully I'll be able to keep up on all of this and manage to figure it all out without too much frustration.
    As far as my technology background I don't really have much. I manage to work with my laptop without screwing things up too much, using mostly the internet, and microsoft word. My freshman year of college I did take some sort of basic computer class that went over the basics of excel, and word, however I can honestly say I don't remember a whole lot. I have an itouch that you will rarely find me without, since I love music and hate silence, and as I'm sure most have a cell phone, mine is nothing special just a flip phone without internet or anything special. If I am introduced to something new though I like to screw around with it till I can figure it out, or until I get too frustrated and have to actually look up how to do something.
