Scanner

This doesn’t particularly involved education, but it does involve technology. Today was my first time using a scanner. My daughter was chosen by the Dallas Morning News to be featured in the paper. She had the opportunity to ask questions; however, they needed a picture of her immediately. I did not have time to take them a picture and didn’t know exactly how I would get the picture to them. “Light bulb” One of the teachers owns a scanner. I asked her if I could use it and she showed me what to do. I scanned my daughter’s picture and voila; I was able to email it immediately; in just a matter of seconds. AND IT WAS EASY!!! I was so impressed. The teacher told me it was great for emailing samples of students work to professors if need be. Someday I may purchase a scanner.
