The first days

Yesterday (but when this blog is published one week ago) me was told to make a blog about Creative Technology. The assignment was given by Anton Eliens during the first course. I like this assignment, unless it is not the 'easyest' (did I write that correct ?) assignment: it is important to tell about the new bachelor and express how you experience creative technology.

My English is very poor (because of this blog I could improve that) and I`m no 'blogwriter' at all, but if I finally succeed in writing something down the way I want than it does give me a kick.

I still did not introduce myself yet. I`d like to keep it short (at this moment): my name is Ineke Visser, I live in Monnickendam during the weekend and in Enschede (nearby the UTwente)during the the rest of the week.

The first days I was very busy with our project for 22 september. As a group we needed a couple of ideas. So, that`s why I began with mailing a few ideas to each other, summarizing ideas, make more ideas, ordening ideas etc. Happily, I had a clever fellowstudent': he launched a forum. You could find the URL to the forum at: http://forum.creativetechnology.eu

The way of teaching (especially with our secund course: "introduction to computer science") is awesome! In this secund course, we learn also via 'technodrama'. it is hard to explain in english, but we visualize a situation in the computer by being the objects ourselfs and playing the rol of that object.

Untill now, I am not afraid to say that Creative technology ( and studying in Twente also) is going above my espectations.

I was very negative and I was constantly thinking why am I doing this, what do I have to do in Enschede etc. etc, but I like it here and that`s part because of the education. Even now i am still negative. I am going home every weekend to work and see my friends in Noord-Holland. So, I am very busy. At this moment, unless I have to do a lot of parties etc :D, that is no problem, but if that will change (probably and hopefully not) than I probably will also going home in the weekend and I will do my study one year longer (unless I took the bachelor very seriously and I am being interested in the stuff).

I think Creative Technology is a very beautiful bachelor, I love every part of the education, and it is a very modern bachelor. Also the way of teahing is very modern. I like that way.
