Reflection #1 - Introduction



Hello all! My name is Janna Fuchs and I grew up in the small town of Wall, Texas. My daddy is a farmer and my mother works at a ranch down the road! Together they are a great support system to me and my siblings.


I am majoring in elementary education with the goal of someday teaching kindergarten! I choose kindergarten because they are a great bunch of kids who have the eagerness to learn all kinds of new things, yet still want you to love them back!

I decided to come to Angelo State University because I like the size of the school. My high school had 85 people in the graduating class and I knew them all! I would have freaked out in a massive college where classrooms are filled with hundreds of students! I also like ASU’s location! I’m a bit of a homebody and San Angelo is close to my parents for an easy home-made meal!

I want to become a teacher because I love being around children and I want to help them want to learn. I want to be that teacher who they can always count on. I want to learn the up-to-date ways of technology so I can be prepared for my future as an educator. I would also like to have the ability to teach my students how to use technology correctly so they are able to use technology well.

Technology has definitely changed since I've been in kindergarten! I remember the old box-like computers and the old-school games you could play on them! Games have really changed a lot because they aren't as pixelated or slow!  Same goes with computers… My computer is quick and lovely thanks to Wi-Fi, dial-up was awful and I can still remember that sound…  Overall, I am glad that technology has become what it is because I honestly wouldn't want to live without it!
