What is an ECT?

Ect stands for Elementary Computer Technologist.  I teach students K- 2nd grade basic computer skills  so they can be proficient computer users and feel comfortable using a computer.  

I teach the students how to use:
    Windows XP
    The Internet for research
    Basic word processing program
    Various computer applications for classroom activities
    Proper keyboarding skills

I follow the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills for Technology Applications in providing classroom activities.  You would really be surprised at how much the students work with computers not only in the lab but also in the library and their classroom.  I feel very lucky having this opportunity to show all the students how necessary yet wonderful and easy it is to work and use computers.
