Activity 2: How Technology Influenced My Life as a Learner

'What is Technology?' When you ask me that during my elementary days. I would answer your question with 'What are you talking about?' because honestly those times I dont have any idea about technology. I dont even know what is Facebook, Yahoo, Friendster, etc. I just want to play that time. So technology has not influenced me as an elementary learner.
During my high school days I was introduced to technology. My first social media account was Facebook, and I used it to socialize and communicate with my friends. Then I got to know Google my ever reliable friend  I use Google to search for my assignments, research and reports.
Technology has been a big part in my high school life  From study purposes to social purposes. As a high school learner technology has influenced me big time. Maybe because technology is rising during those times(our generation). Its not shocking that I'm so into technology, all those trends I know it. I'm so lucky because we have technology  my life as a student became easier. Just one click in the internet then all those assignments/research is solved.
Now that I'm in college, technology is still a big part of my life. Without technology I will not be able to post this blog/article. It is a big help in my studies because all my reports is just a click away.

Teachers need to know how to operate technology (laptop, desktop, projector, etc..). You don't need to be a pro but at least you know the basic knowledge about it. We are living in the 21st Century where technology is very dominant and we will encounter students who is pro in technology, that's why we need to cope up. We didn't want our students to tease us about that, aren't we?    Teaching could be a lot easier with the help of technology. As a future Educator we didn't need to write the lesson in the b
