While reviewing other students blogs the topics I find most interesting are their personal views on what we are doing in class. I like to compare what I think and feel about the topics we discuss in class to what everyone else thinks. Also, as weird as this may sound, I like to read about what everyone has been doing the past week. Even though I don't know who any of these people are but I think it is cool to know that they have real lives too.
A technological skill I would like to learn next is web based security. I think it would be interesting to learn about how there are so many websites out there that require passwords, I think it would be cool to learn about how you can really be sure that there is security in the Internet world.
I could achieve my educational technology based goals by again, doing some research. Although I am not that interested in the subject, if I was, I would probably look online to find some articles about the topic to further my knowledge on the issue.

An interesting web based tool i may consider using during my teaching career would be the inspiration program. From what i remember it is a web based tool, and it is a really interesting and useful tool. This program is helpful when trying to create maps and flow charts. Especially when working with younger kids it is a really good tool in order to keep them interested and focused on the subject at hand.
Another useful web based tool is the Wiki program. Wikispaces.com is a very interesting tool that is really different than any of the other teaching/visual tools I've seen on the web. Although it is a little bit more complex and tedious than most instructional tools, it is really different which is likely to keep the students attention.
The next technological tool I would like to learn more about is web pages. I know that web pages don't really play into educational instruction that well, but I think it is interesting to see/learn how they are created and how they become so popular practically over night. I think it would be very interesting and informational to learn about how they work.
A way in which I will be able to achieve my educational technology-related goals is to either do more research on the subjects that interest me, or i could even take a class on the particular subjects. Since it is very unlikely that I will really take a class on a technological subject, I would probably opt to just read abou it in my spare time.
