I haven't always wanted to be a teacher and have never gave much thought about even furthering my study in university. It wasn't until receiving a soccer scholarship where I had the option to study in university and choose a potential career path. After discussing with my parents and advisors, we all figured that with my past experiences in athletics and coaching, that being a physical education and health teacher would be a positive option for me to take.
I am not too comfortable with technology. I still have and use your basic motorola flip phone, due to the lack of care or need for this "new technology." This is probably because you can be afraid of what you do not know; therefore, it is easier for one to just avoid it and go on with what one's familiar with.
My feelings on technology in education is simply based on the idea that if it is beneficial for the learner, than it is valuable. I think that it can be very positive in the classroom; however, if not used appropriately, or too much, it can certainly flirt with being counter productive.
