My views of chapter 1

I was interested to see the history of computers as described in the chapter.  I am definitely not computer literate by any means.  The MOOC's are very interesting to me.  We live in a much smaller world than we ever have before.  Smartphones, laptops, ebooks, and technology in general has made the world a much smaller place. 

They also discuss multitasking, which I am not good at either.  Studies have shown that it is counterproductive.  The example they use is driving and texting, perfect!!!!!

The chapter is a perfect summary of the history of technology up to this point.

Here is my first post to a blog ever.

I am Frank Napolitano.  I am a self-employed landscaper.  I live in New Windsor, NY.  I went to Newburgh Free Academy and graduated class of 1996.  I got my associates degree from Orange County Community College.  I received a bachelor's degree from MSMC in 2005 in education.  I am now pursuing a Master's Degree in Education.  My preferred field of study is High School Math.  I have spent the last year taking classes at Mount Saint Mary's College.  I didn't think I could do well in these classes, I was actually very apprehensive.  Everything seems to working out, though.  It's tougher than I expected it to be.  I feel like a dinosaur because I am usually the oldest student in the class.  Everyone else is in their mid 20's and I'm 38 years old.
