Think back a few years to how you used to use your computer. Describe any changes you've noticed over that time. Finally, make some predictions about your computer use in 2013.

I belong to a generation that did not have any formal instruction on technology or computers in high school. The only course that remotely had anything in common with the use of computers was a typing course. When I was at the University of Belgrade doing my B.A. in French I was still typing my essays on an "automatic" type writer. So, it was no sooner then when I started my graduate studies that I started using computer more seriously. From that point on it all went quite fast and I learnt a lot about basic stuff but was still using computer mostly as sophisticated type writer,email tool and my access to Internet. And then I came to ISB and started using (with help of my computer savvy colleagues- thanks Milica!) many different tools to enhance my teaching. With this course under my belt, I will hopefully be able to include much more 21C skills in my teaching in 2013.
And I want to add that I used to love buying nice paper sheets, fancy notebooks and lots of colorful pencils and pens. Thanks to my computer, I am saving a lot of money.

  1. I still buy notebooks and fancy paper, but it's for art - not writing. You're lucky to have Milica in close proximity (pedagogically speaking too). By helping each other with technology we learn a lot about teaching as well. In this way you can see how technology can act as a "digital glue" for both our students and teachers.
