Introduction Letter


My name is Noelle Neuhart. I am from...drum roll please...SAN MARCOS! But don't you worry, it has been a long road for me to get here. In 422. Today. My first school was Knob Hill Elementary. Then off to Woodland Park Middle School (yes, WPMS, teehee). High school: San Marcos fighting Knights! College: 1. Palomar CC (still in San Marcos, itching to get out), 2. California State University Long Beach, 3. Griffith University, AUSTRALIA! (best year of my life), then 4. back to Long Beach(earning my BA in Communication Studies) and now, 5. back home and attending CSUSM (in hopes of figuring out life a little more).

My technology experience has been learned strictly from my experience in college. While in Australia, studying Communication Studies, I had two technology classes, where I learned how to blog, post videos on youtube, and other things that I should remember, yet for some reason can't. Because I am a new user to a Macbook, it has sparked my interest in learning how to do the "cooler" side of technology (imovie). I'd say on a scale from 1-10, I'm probably a solid 5. I use my theory to technology as I do to lots of things in life: fake it til you make it!

I'm not going to lie. This was the first time I read the Mission Statement. The two things that stood out to me the most where the words, "life-long learning" and "ongoing service." I am a firm believer that we are sponges to life and that life is a constant learning experience. Teaching as a career seems to also be one of "ongoing service," I believe its one of the best services you can offer another individual.

  1. Hi Noelle! Cool blog! I didn't know you studied abroad! I spent a semester in Dublin, Ireland! Man, I really enjoy exclamation points, don't I!?

    Enough of that. I ran into Pilar last night after our 364 class. I'm so glad I know you two in my classes. It's funny how I haven't seen or spoken to either of you in five or six years and now here we are!

    Anyway, I'll see you Monday night!

  2. Hi Noella!

    Wanna be my friend?!

    Don't worry about not remembering how to post videos on YOUTUBE. Sometimes I forget how to log into my own email account. I want to learn more about my mac too. Maybe we can learn how to do imovie together! I can't wait until we're teachers! WoooHOOOO!!!!!! K, well I guess I'll see you later.

    Hasta Pasta,
    Pila

  3. I love "fake it till you make it" because it is so true. I would have to say that I apply this theory to certain things in my life as well.

  4. Hey Noelle,

    Your blog was the first that I read! Your page looks great btw:) I would love to hear more about your experience at the schools you have attended. Specifically, I would like to know more about the san marcos school district. One of my best friends went to woodland and San Marcos High. I just love Australian accents and you are so fortunate to have had the opportunity to travel!
