How technology will impact our future?

     I learned many things in this semester. This semester was a huge opportunity for me to advance my knowledge towards technology. Well, the first thing we learned is the basics of the computer and devices like a cellphone. We learned about input and output. After that, we learned on Microsoft Office. And it wasn't a ride in the park, it was pretty tough. We learned about Microsoft Word, Microsoft Powerpoint, Microsoft Excel and the basics of there prior teachings. We also learned some commands on this keyboard like CTRL+Z and CTRL+A  And finally, the main thing we learned about Computer Fundamentals is respect. We learned too take these computers into care, not to do anything to them, leave them as they were new. I thank Mrs. Ramirez for that, thanks Mrs. Ramirez!
    These new skills will help me tremendously in my life. I learned how too use the computer more precisely and more academically than before. I use too know about computer's before this, but not as much as I know now. After im done taking CF, i will use this knowledge to work. I could help people that doesn't know one thing about computer's, instead of writing a essay, I could type one. Instead of drawing a graph, I could make a graph. There is infinite things on how these skills can help me work. I am just very grateful that I have this. These all could help me achieve my long time goals in all ways.
    Technology is very important for your career's. First of all, when your going to your first interview, and you need a resume, and you don't know how to do it, your going to write? How bad would that look. The boss wants someone who knows how to get the job done, someone that has experience, not someone who doesn't know how to use the computer. Even if you become a cashier, the manager wouldn't want someone that did not know one single thing about technology. How would you even work with the cash register. All these things add up. When you go too college, there going to ask you what your good at. And if they see you have no experience in technology, you wont get in.
    There are still a lot more things I would like too learn in technology. Even though Im not that interested in a career in technology, I still would like some common knowledge on it. I would love to know how to make a computer chip. It would be the best experience I would ever have. If one of my chip's broke, I would just make one for fun. It would be very fun. I would also love to know how to make a computer from scratch. How to make a computer, a keyboard, a headphone, and a desktop itself. I would be very entertained. Those are the only things I would want to learn. It would be a great experience.
      I would think I would go into Computer Programming. I'm not experienced, but i can do things like, change settings for a game, change what a calculator would say. Things like that. I would be very entertained in Computer Programming. It would be very cool too see my program in people's computer. It wont be a major career too me, but unless its something then nothing. I came into this high school for only 2 things. Good Education and Good knowledge towards technology. Thank you Mrs. Ramirez for this great experience!
