Reflection #4

After reading the chapter, is it Age or IT.  I realized first and foremost that I identify with Gen X-ers way more than my own generations. Then I tried to answer the questions posed at the end of the Chapter.
1. Are you more comfortable composing documents online than longhand?
I'm more comfortable longhand I write almost everything on a notepad before I transcribe it.


2.Have you turned your "remembering" (phone numbers, meetings, and so on) over to a technology device?
This is mixed, I learn important numbers like my wife's or pizza hut. However if it is someone I am studying with or someone I work with I trust my phone to keep up with it.  

3. 
Do you go to meetings with your laptop, iPad, or tablet?
no, done have a tablet or a smart phone, I do however bring a notebook.

4. 
Are you constantly connected? Is the Internet always on whether you are at home or work? Is your cell phone always with you?
Yes, to a point, I keep the internet running at my house, and always have a phone on me. No smart phone though.

5. 
How many different activities can you effectively engage in at one time?
This is a hard question, I can manage the big picture on many tasks at once, But i prefer to focus on one thing at a time, to make sure I get the details right. 

6.Do you play video or computer games?  
Yes.

Now I realize that most people my age and younger, are much more tech savvy than I. So I obviously need to get used to these things, and proficient in them if I am going to excel as a teacher in the future.
