Week 1 – Setting up for Class

Hello everyone! This is a blog that I am going to use for my OSU online class called Gender and Technology (WGSS 320).

So far it has been fairly easy to set up this blog. I used OSU’s free WordPress blog server to host this site and after logging in and following a little self guided tour everything has been going smoothly!

In addition to setting up a blog for the class I revamped the signature to my school email, adding the OSU logo and changing my title from “engineering student” to “computer science student”.

Another small project for the class was setting up the text-to-speech on my computer. Personally the default text-to-speech program with Windows 8 is a little annoying and difficult to navigate and use. I don’t think that I will use it in the future unless I am not doing anything else on my computer at the time.

I am looking forward to a great term and can’t wait to see what I am going to learn!
