1. Enrique's Technology History
Hi I’m Enrique Figueroa and I’m in cohort 3 having completed my first two years of the CLAIR program.
The World Wide Web was just being expanded for personal use but colleges weren’t using the internet for ing. .
Early 1990's
I don’t quite remember my first cell phone but I think it was a flip phone
Mid 2000's
I reluctantly got an iphone several years ago
2000 somthing
Blogging & Twitter
2016
My first address as a hotmail account and I still use it for social media log ins
Late 1990's
Apples were introduced to me by my high school librarian and tech guru. He made a presentation about the greatness of Apple computers.
Late 1980's
I studied in London for a year and was amazed at how many people had cell phones. When I got home, an acquaintance had a cell phone but nothing like the sleeker models in Europe.
Enrique's Technology History
The earliest computer I remember besides a calculator is a Commodore 64 which if I remember correctly was the first person computer that was affordable to the average person (the Model T of computers).
Early 1980s
Instead an intra-college messaging service was developed but I never used it
As texting became widely used, I moved on to a cell phone with a key board
The great thing about Smartphones is their ability to go online. I’m not sure whether their online capability spurred apps, but they make it easy to stay connected to school work.
I’ve thought about having a blog for years but it wasn’t until this summer that I created a blog on contemporary learning inspired by a class assignment.
