First Day!
Hi everyone! My name is Gabby and I am currently in my last semester here at FSU. My major is theatre and I decided last year to pick up a minor in education, so here I am. Upon graduating in May my goal is to return to London, which is where I completed my study abroad program during Fall 2017. After that I would like to attend graduate school for theatre education. There are a great number of grad school programs in this field all over the country so the goal is just choosing the right one for me, although I would love to be in New York. I have one sister who is also involved in theatre! She works as the Production Stage Manager for Slow Burn Theatre Company down in Ft. Lauderdale and loves every minute of it.
My prior experience with educational technology is pretty basic. I grew up working with Smart Boards in my classrooms, mainly starting in my later years of elementary school and feeding into middle and high. I also was required to take a course in my 8th grade year that dealt with proficiency in Word, PowerPoint, and Excel. In this class I would complete assignments that helped me meet these skills and it has greatly influenced my knowledge in using them today in college.
In this class I hope to learn a lot more about building a personal learning network. Although I kind of have one, learning how to do this efficiently will greatly influence me as I go into my post-grad career. I also hope to learn ore about the kinds of advancements that are happening with educational technology and a little more on where it started. I am really looking forward to furthering my skills with Word and Microsoft because it is going to be incredibly beneficial for my future!

Hi Gabby,
ReplyDeleteI'm so jealous you might be living in London after graduating!! I studied abroad in Europe Fall 2017 as well, but I went to Granada, Spain.
That's amazing!!! I didn't get to travel to Spain when I was over there but I really want to go sometime.
DeleteCongrats on being in your last semester at FSU, you are almost to the finish line. Your major is very interesting, I believe minoring in education will definitely help you in your future goals in theatre education. Good luck with everything sounds like you have a bright and exciting future ahead of you.
ReplyDeleteHeyy Gabby!! OMG congrats on your last semester, I hope you finish your senior year strong! One of my goals as well is to study abroad, but I have yet to pick a place I want to venture to first. I have never met a theatre major, very interesting. My minor is education as well so if you have any tips on some of the classes or the professors, I am all ears. Good luck in the future with your career and with life, I wish you the best!
