Jordan blog set-up (Introduction)

Hello! My name is Jordan Neeld and I am a senior here at The Florida State University. I am originally from Philadelphia but moved to Jupiter, Florida when I was 14. I have a dog, he is a Black lab and Great Dane mix. I have enjoyed all of my years here at FSU and I cannot believe it is my last year here.

Besides playing the educational games on the computer during computer lab during elementary school I really do not have much experience playing educational video games. I have however taken a class on computer gaming programs such as SCRATCH. I also play a lot of Fortnite, which I believe to be a very competitive strategy game which can help get the brain working. Most people, including my girlfriend, would disagree but I believe playing Fortnite before doing assignments can help me get my brain sharp before doing the assignment.

I hope to learn about different systems teachers might use to present information to the students and different systems to interact with the students all together. I believe this class is important because teachers should try their best to adapt to new technologies because they can be extremely helpful and beneficial to the students. I am not currently pursing a teaching career but I am interested in changing education policy so I am hoping to get a good background on how the actual classroom runs so I can make improvements where there needs to be. I believe this class will help me better make policy decisions to benefit the education system.

  1. Fortnite is fun!!! Unfortunately, I didn't have enough time to polish my skills and test out strategies... I kinda quitted it.
    It looks like you have a focus on education systems and policies instead of teaching at a micro level. Would love to hear more about it from this perspective throughout the semester.
    One side note: You may consider to change the color scheme. Dark green does not stand out from the green background. I am having great trouble in reading and typing up my comments.
