Julie's Intro Letter for class 422

My name is Julie Hinkel and I am from Oceanside, Ca where I was born and raised. I am a married mother of two, they are 6 and 5, and am loving every minute of it! I am the oldest of four kids and the only girl- my childhood was fun! We attended Vista schools even though we lived in Oceanside, namely Alamosa Elementary and Roosevelt Middle School. I then graduated from Vista High in 1996 where I was a cheerleader, ASB Secretary, writer for the school newspaper and a volunteer with the school site counsel. Man I must have been annoying!

I am a PC person but my extent of pc knowledge is limited to internet surfing and basic microsoft applications. My college experience has required me to learn powerpoint and word and limited usage of excel. Beyond that this is all foreign to me!

The CSUSM/COE mission statement hasn't had a huge impact on me because it is what I expected. CSUSM has a great reputation for its education program and that is why I decided to continue my education here. The mission statement says it all. I am very much looking forward to being an educator and making a difference in the lives of children.

Hi Julie,

I'm sure you weren't annoying in high school - without people like you, nothing gets done!

I graduated from cal state fullerton and I did not get much education on computers either. I wish more classes would incorporate the use of technology other than word, powerpoint etc.
