Hello class! My name is Jenna Albert and I currently live in Murrieta, CA. I grew up in Escondido, CA and attended elementary through high school there. I first went to North Broadway Elementary for K-2 grades. Next, I went to Rock Springs Elementary for 3-5. After elementary school I went to Rincon Middle and then on to Escondido High School where I graduated in 2004. From high school I came straight to CSUSM. I am currently in my final semester here trying to finish up my Bachelor's Degree in Economics. After I finish I plan on entering the credential program to get my Single Subject Credential in Mathematics.
I have been working with technology for many years now. I have to say that by default I am a PC person, but I am hoping that my next computer purchase will be a Mac. Technology is a large part of my everyday life. From school to work I am constantly signed on to e-mail and using different programs to get tasks done. I use Microsoft Office 2007 on my laptop computer and I have 2003 on my desktop so I am familiar with both.
One part of the College of Education Mission Statement that speaks to me is the idea of diversity. I currently work at San Marcos Adult School and Twin Oaks Continuation High School in San Marcos which allows me to work with a broad range of students from the ones that are behind in credits, working toward their diploma to the adults that never received their diploma. I think that by being able to speak to a diverse group of students, an educator is better prepared to succeed and allow their students to succeed.

Congratulations on finishing up your BA. I agree you have to be able to speak to a diverse group of students to help prepare you. The best of luck to you with the credential program.
haha i love your picture! I think that is crazy that you live in Murrieta and come down this way for school, that is dedication.
You are so close to being done! It has to be a great feeling. I'm not sure what the single subject program is like, but I know the the multiple subject is quite tedious. It's an experience you will surely benefit from, I promise. Mac is great but pricey. Make sure you get the student discount and they offer financing if you need it. The purchase is really worth it in the end, I think!
Good Luck!
