Hello Interweb!

My name is Emma and I am currently studying at Australian Catholic University (Aquinas Campus) to be a primary school teacher.
This is my first blog post ever so let’s get something straight right here and now… I’m not the most tech savvy person in the world. You know that person who’s always asking, “How do I use that app?” or “Can you help me fix this?” That person is me. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not completely hopeless… I’m not about to click on an email alerting me to the fact I’m the one hundred thousandth customer or unfreeze my computer by putting it in the microwave. I can deal with the basics of technology but anything more complex than PowerPoint… let’s just say I’d struggle.
Being fully aware of my blindingly evident lack of knowledge about the online style of learning, I am currently undertaking a unit known as EDFD459, The Learning Space. This leads me specifically to this blog and optimistically, I hope that I will gain a more concrete understanding of what it means to be an online learner and eventually (fingers crossed) engage my students one day in the world of online learning.
