Thing #2

How did I decide on posting my name and the name of my blog?   I named my blog after me because, well, it is my blog.  Actually after being in organic chemistry for a year and labeling over 200 laboratory notebook pages, "K Mott", the name sort of stuck.  The title of my blog reflects the requirements of completing this course.

What was my experience in creating the blog like?  Was it easy or hard for me?  Why?  I am not going to lie to you...this class scares me more than any other class I have taken.  I was not raised during the electronic age and I am not confident in my computer skills.  I can do what I need to do to get by.  I had a hard time figuring out what size and colors to use on my blog and I still haven't figured out how to make my words closer together so it doesn't take up so much space.  I hope that after this class is over, I will have gained self-confidence in computer usage and be able to utilize the electronic equipment in my classroom as effectively as possible.  Computer technology can be very beneficial in my art classroom.  I have never blogged before so please be patient as I will do my best to succeed.  I am very nervous and excited about this class and I am looking forward to working with each one of you.

How does my avatar reflect my personality?  Did I create an avatar that looks like me or someone totally different?  There weren't very many things I could do to my avatar to make it reflect my personality other than change its clothes.  I would like to be able to add some personality to my avatar if someone could lead me in the right direction.  I tried to make my avatar look as close to me as possible.  I like to see people's interpretations of themselves or others.  It is fun to look at self-portraits and immediately know who that person is.

  1. K Motts! I'm not exactly sure who you are, but I chose to follow your blog based on your Van Gogh template choice...very nice. I love Starry Night! Anyway, I'm not much of a blogger, but can definitely see the benefits of sharing information in a fun an organized manner. Good luck with improving your technological skills!
