When I first came to SNHU I thought the campus was gorgeous. It was secluded from the city, yet close enough to it to feel like part of it when I wanted to. It seemed like it had a very mountain-type feel to it as well, which I really liked. I was told the class sizes were smaller, but that there was a decent student population size so I could get to know a lot more people. Everything about SNHU seemed really nice and a good fit for me. When I came to SNHU I was undecided as to what i wanted to do with my life. This means I didn't have a real major picked out. I knew however, that whatever I was going to do with my life, I wanted to help people. That led me to taking an intro to psychology class. I thoroughly enjoyed the content of the course and all of the things we were learning about so I figured it would be a good major to declare. Throughout the semester I thought more about my career path and somewhere during that time I decided that I would really like to become guidance counselor (preferably for the high school level).
In a meeting with my advisor later into my first semester her and I were discussing ways to help me achieve this ultimate goal. I didn't really know which way was the best so she suggested definitely taking up a minor in education. I thought this was a great idea! I also declared a dual minor in sociology as well to help me achieve this goal. I ended up in EDU 235 specifically because it was required of me, but more importantly because it seems like teaching is moving towards more use of technology. Because of this movement, I figured it would be very important to learn about the use of technology in the classroom.
