My Blog Journal

    Hi, my name is Heshawin Gilleg and I love soccer because it is more exciting than most team sports that I watch on television. I grew up in a small town just outside of Tallahassee and later moved to Tallahassee for school. I love dining and robots. My major is Business Psychology and my minor is in English. 
    Prior to this class, I did not know a lot regarding computers. Recently I read about the internet and how cybercrimes occur over extensive email hacks that happen more regularly than someone would guess. I have used school laptops and other devices for research in my major. I have participated in several studies where the focus was on how the length of time someone can consume while concentrating on a task without checking their phone. 
    The learning resources that I use around the university are the considerate tutors that are conveniently located online and often if my class has teachers assistants they are more than essential to stretch out to help with anything. I usually use the library when it was available for students. Lately, I have used google search more than I have in the past because a professor taught me a way to make Google search more useful in studying. Another resource that I have used in the past for analysis essays are online library databases, I find these resources effective since they help me find books and scholarly resources to apply in my research.

In kindergarten, I loved games on the computer and then one day the teacher showed us Microsoft Word and taught us to spell simple words on the computer. Since then, I have improved and grown on to love word processing software. Google Docs is much more efficient to use in my opinion since it allows two people to work on one Word Document instead of having to send the document to someone else and wait for them to send it back. It is definitely an innovative approach to writing.       A standard from the ISTE standards list that means the most to me is the Citizen standard which states, "Educators inspire students to positively contribute to and responsibly participate in the digital world." I believe the best way to teach is to lead by example and from that model, everyone can follow and motivate someone else in their own preferred method. In my own words, it is the educator
