Blog Post about WMS 150

In this era of technology where almost everyone, young children to the elderly, is adept at using electronic devices such as computers, laptops, TVs and cellphones, it comes to no surprise that a young adult such as myself is affluent in technology as well.
I think I am very capable to collaborate with others through digital media such as the Internet, as proven on this blog and other social media sites I participate in, and cellphones. I have a laptop, smart phone and other technological devices that I have learned to use since I was a child. I can easily send an email with a point and click, type up and attach Word documents, work with PowerPoint as well as Excel and make graphs, charts, and slides. I can create online and digital databases as proven through this blog as well as other blogs I have and I know how to use search engines such as Google, Yahoo and so on to retrieve information. I have taken computer science courses throughout my high school career and have learned the tricks, ins and outs of programs such as Excel and PowerPoint as well as Word Processor.
In other classes I have had multiple projects that require me to be proficient in technology and demonstrate my knowledge through spreadsheets and comparing one type of technology against another. I am able to use multimedia like uploading, viewing and downloading videos, audio files and pictures.
I understand legal, ethical and privacy issues in technology through this course as well as just being in the social media world and technology age. I know about online piracy and plagiarism as well as protecting one's information in the digital world.
For the next semester, I suggest a shorter and more direct syllabus, one textbook to use and incorporate in class discussions, more information on the legal, ethical and privacy issues in technology rather than making blog posts, and one final project rather than two. For next semester, the course should be more focused on Women and Community rather than Women and Technology. It should not be counted as a Computer Science course if the focus is more on Women. It should on the other hand, not be considered a Womens Studies course if women are rarely studied and rather making blog posts and watching videos online is the focus point of the class.
