Greeting and Welcome to Information Processing!
Hello to the students of Information Processing! In this class you will be learning a great deal about technology, believe it or not! I respect the fact that there are some of you who already know plenty, so… I want you to shock me with your knowledge every chance you get.
I am not an idiot, and you are not an idiot, so don’t even go there… we can learn together without being disrespectful. Question what you need to and answer what you can.
I hope you enjoy your time in my class!
