Finding a lot of resources, not finding a lot of time

I am really learning a lot but spending a lot of time.  I trust I will get better at this Technology stuff.  I feel like with all the Feedly, Twitter, iTunes, and Delicious, I am finding incredible resources, however, I am not sure I'll find the time to take advantage of these readings and posted links.  It just feels like a lot.  So, on a scale of 1-10, I feel at a 2.   When this semester is over, I know that score will raise, and I look forward to being more comfortable and confident.

EDL–7510- Improving Productivity and Practice with technology

Greetings all, (tech-savvy ha ha)
This is my introduction blog on my journey to become more tech-savvy.  I love technology and have always sought ways to use technology in my classes.  I have even lead trainings on using technology in the classrooms, but as I have altered my focus of my class to more outdoor activities, I've lost my edge with technology.  I feel the lack of practice with technology and see the need to get back into it.  Especially since there has got to be some amazing ways to incorporate technology with my outdoor activities and lessons.  So, when it comes to teaching with technology, not only am I struggling now, I have been for over a year. Let me explain, I thought I was so tech-savvy that I could navigate and work with a smart phone other than an iPhone. Nope.  I was and still am very challenged by my Samsung.   There are just way too many choices and locations to find certain files.   I know that my device is a superior tool that allows me to do so much more than my old iPhone, but I just can't figure it out.   The same goes with Twitter.   I have no clue why I can't twitter, I have tried numerous times, and they have all failed.  I'm reluctant to ask for help because of how embarrassed I am, but I guess I just need to do it.  I am hoping that this class will assist me in mastering these basic and essential tools, and many, many more.  #KSU-­‐EDL7510,
