I want to be a teacher because I want to touch children’s lives. I want to encourage them to do their very best and be the best person they can be. I want to help all children learn whether they are gifted or have a learning disability.
I really do not have any technology experience. I can use word documents and the internet. After that it pretty much ends. I am willing to learn even though it may be a struggle. I realize how important it is to know technology.
I have taken two on-line courses. I took theatre in the fall of 2009 and I just took a math course this past summer. I really liked taking both classes on line because of their flexibility. I was able to do the work for the class in my spare time. The only thing I didn’t like was that sometime I would procrastinate and wait until the last minute to get things done. This course was offered over the summer and I did consider taking it. However, I worked two jobs this past summer and had already registered to take the math class. I thought it might be too much for me and I wanted to make sure I did well in both classes. So, I ended up taking the math in the summer on-line and keeping this one in my fall schedule.
An interesting fact about myself is that I made it to states for track my junoir and senior year in high school. I made it both years in the long jump and just my senior year for the 110 meter hurdles. I used to run for Lock Haven my freshman and sophmore year and I took 8th place at psac's my freshman year in the decathlon.

An interesting fact about me is that i have been to many countries as well as many of the states in the U.S. I really enjoy traveling because it is a great experience. You can really learn a lot by visiting other countries culture.
A couple things that come to be an interest for me is that during my spare time, i enjoy playing drums and guitar. I find music to be very relaxing to me so i like to listen to it as well as play it. Besides music, i love to have fun on the mountain slopes snowboarding and crashing the waves at the beach with my surfboard.

Hello, my name is Megan Stevenson, and I am in the Elementary Education program at Lock Haven University. This will be my third year of college, and I’m sure that it will be the most difficult. I am originally from a little town called Jersey Shore, which is not far from Lock Haven at all.
I have wanted to become a teacher ever since my senior year of high school. The main reason is because of all the great teachers I have had throughout my life. There was this one in particular teacher, who always had pushed me to to better and to look at life as if it could always be worse than what it actually is; basically to see the the bright side in everything. I want to be that teacher who is always positive and is always eager to help when needed.
My comfort level is not very high when it comes to using any kind of technology. I have only been texting for about a year or so now, that's how far back in time I am. I know how to use the basics off of a Smartboard or Promeathean board, like the ones in the elementary schools. I also know how to work a digital camera and how to use the different effects and settings that come with it. That is about as far as my knowledge of technology goes at this time.
I cannot say that I have taken any online classes in the past. The closest I have come to an online class would be using just using the old eCompanion do to tests and online chats or group talks with other students in those courses. I do not like the thought of an online course. I am a visual learner and for me to be able to understand how to do something, I have to see it and physically do it myself. I also like the interaction between professor and student. It's always nice to know that you can go to a professors office during his/her hours to get one-on-one instruction.
There are a lot of interesting facts about myself. One of the most interesting would have to be that I am very tall for a girl or at least I believe I am. There is not many of us, 6ft girls walking around campus these days. It definitely has its pros and cons.
