Reflection # 7

The first time I used a computer was in the 4^th grade. Our class was taken to the computer lab, once a week. I recall my computer teacher showing us how to use the mouse, how to start the computer, and how to log into the computers. I was not familiar with computers at the time because my family did not have a computer at home. I looked forward to going to my class every week because we would do assignments that contained typing on the keyboards. Our teachers would implement rewards when we did assignments. The class would play races against each other to see who could finish the assignment fastest and correct. Whoever would win would get extra time to play frogger on the computer. It was a great experience for me and I am grateful to have been introduced to computers. The first time I was introduced to the internet had to have been in middle school. My parents finally got a computer that ran super slow because it was on DSL because the technology was not as awesome as it is now. AOL was the internet browser that I would use. Within the years computers started becoming my life and I learned of many new programs and software’s. I am a computer information systems major and I enjoy using computers very much, who knows where I would be, If my teacher would have never showed us how to use a computer. J
