    My first computer game was Starcraft. This was the first time I turly became infatuated with the computer and started to work my way around by browsing through files, installing programs, and really develop my typing skills by entering in cheat codes. Image credit Wikipedia.
  • First MP3 Music Device

    My first MP3 device I got for Christmas was the JAM MP3 player. It only had 8 megabits of storage, so not much storage, but I was able to experience data sizes and understand storage copacities.
  • First iPod

    I loved having my music in high school and my first iPod allowed me to have all of my music in my pocket. I was obsessed with organizing my files, changing album names, making playlists, and more.
  • My First Laptop

    My First Laptop
    My first laptop was a Macbook Core Duo - Black. I loved this laptop mostly because it was my first one and I was going off to college, but also becasue it allowed me to understand the in's and out's of a Macbook where I have had Windows my entire life. In a diverse world of technology, it was become beneficial to understand both Windows and Mac. Image credit Wikipedia.
  • Most Significant Use of iPod Touch

    Most Significant Use of iPod Touch
    I've had many different types of technology growing up, but they were mostly for entertainment. That was no different for my iPod touch, however that little device saved me on many occasions in college. I used my iPod touch to fully register for class for the next semester, when I forgot to signup. I also used the microphone function to record my lectures in class and play them later.

  • Job Interview

    Job Interview
    I would not have the job I do now if it wasn't for my Samsung Galaxy S5. I did the entire interview over the phone, since there were some internet problems on the emplyer's end, and then they wanted to see me for a second interview. I screen chatted them using my 4G since wifi was poor in my location and I got the job! Picture source Wikipedia.
  • iPads in the Classroom

    I stared my first educational job last year (2014) and the school has issued an iPad for every student. This has opened up so many different avenues for learning in my classroom and iPads have become a great tool for education.
