Hello and welcome to the Tank's blog. My real name is Francisco Javier "Frank the Tank" Nunez. You may call me Francisco, Javier, Frank, Frank the Tank or just Tank... I swear I will answer to any of those. I am a South Floridian born originally in Venezuela. I am currently in my third year at FSU working on a Bachelor's in Arts and Science and Business Management. It's been tough. Not to say any Bio or Law majors out there don't have it tougher, I admire their hard work. Aside from school, I also work for the Tally Mac Shack, which is a mac and cheese... let me say again, its a MAC AND CHEESE food truck that runs around Tallahassee every week. It is a great job minus the calories.
When I think of technology being used for education in my past experiences, I can think of two of the top of my head. One instance where technology was used in a educational setting that I was in is through the use of projectors. When I lived in Venezuela, not even the nice schools had projectors. Coming to America and being able to learn not only through a dry erase board, but a projector screen as well was a miracle of knowledge. Another time I can think of where we used technology was when the teacher went on a website called Kahoot.com, where the students would join through their phones and answer questions to review for exams.
I have to be honest, this class was on a list of courses I could take in order to fulfill course requirements for my major, therefore my only knowledge of what this class involved came from the title. I hope to learn what this class is specifically. After attending the first day, I definitely had a bigger grasp of what the class encompasses. Another thing I would like to learn is how this class will help me in the future, therefore I am very excited to see what this class has in store!
Signing off... for now,
The Tank

ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I see the finish line but it isn't getting any closer haha. good luck to you, too!
DeleteI found it interesting how you compared the use of technology in Venezuela to that in the United States. I would love to know more about your experiences and comparisons. That's cool that you work in a food truck. I should check it out sometime! Good luck in your classes. You got this!
