Reflection

I would be lying if I said that I was excited when I registered for my Women and Computers course. I have never really considered my self a "techy" person. In fact, I usually tell people that I am technologically challenged! My bad attitude toward the class made the first few class meetings really long. As I began to do the assignments, though, I realized how much I was interested in the content of the class!

Computers and the internet are so very important in this day and age. They are a part of our everyday lives! We communicate with others on the computer, play games on the computer, we even pay our bills on the computer! Why not  further our education on the computer!? And why not do it in a feminist way!?

Had I not taken this class I never would have realized how interested I am in blogging. While I do not write blog entries as often as I would like, I do read my favorite blogs at least once a day. I have learned so much! I have also been introduced to numerous different resources that I can utilize in other classes and in my everyday life. Delicious might be one of my favorite new websites!

Overall, I am very glad that I was required to take this course. Had it not been a requirement I never would have registered. I am saddened that the class will no longer be available for other students to take. I feel that it is very important and that it has helped me to become a better feminist!
