Hello Everyone,
My name is Kaisa Lindeneau. I am twenty-five years old and currently live in Rancho Bernardo with my cousin. I recently got engaged and am very excited about planning my upcoming wedding. I am a full-time, private swim instructor, where I get to teach and interact with people (mostly kids) all day long. I was born in Denver, Colorado and lived there until I was three. I have lived in sunny San Diego ever since. I grew up in Escondido and completed my K-12 education there (Miller Elementary, Del Dios Middle School, and San Pasqual High School). I also attended San Diego State University where I received my Bachelors Degree in Kinesiology.
Since I was born in 1981, I feel that I have grown up around technology which is getting better everyday. I have a great deal of experience with common technology and really love my little laptop, little camera, and little nano. I consider myself to be somewhat tech savvy. I am a PC person probably due to the fact that it is all that I have ever known. At first thought, I would like to say that I don’t depend on technologies on a daily basis, but as I try to imagine myself without my car, my cell-phone, or even my hairdryer, I can’t imagine how I could get through a single morning, not-to-mention an entire day.
After reading the COE Mission Statement there was one part in particular that stood out to me, which was the mention of “innovative research”. This reminded me of a new development I heard about, where schools are trying to promote physical education to students at a much earlier grade level. Childhood obesity is commonly being attributed to the lack of health awareness at a young age. I feel that new studies and findings can have a great impact on the way we can teach children, and I think the College of Education’s dedication to research is valuable. Not having read it at the time, the mission statement was not a deciding factor in choosing to attend CSUSM. Now that I HAVE read it, I am even happier with my decision to continue my education at Cal State San Marcos.
