About Me:
My name is Sabel Overlin and I am currently a freshman at the University of Kentucky. I am a part of the A&S Wired Living Learning Program. I joined Wired so I could participate in classes that incorporate technology into everyday learning. I am currently majoring in Psychology and Elementary Education. After graduating from UK I would like to either be an elementary school teacher or guidance counselor. My interest in Psychology encouraged me to research the psychological side of the novel Beloved.

About Me:
My name is Emily Miniard and I am a freshman at the University of Kentucky. I am currently participating in the A&S Living Learning Program here at UK. It has really helped me with my major, Psychology, and has opened a lot of opportunities for me. I love being a “wired” student because I get to meet many others that are interested in Psychology as well. For as long as I can remember, I’ve been wanting to study psychology because I’ve always been interested in learning more about myself. Within Psychology you get to learn new things about yourself and the world around and that is what has truly kept my interest.
Summary of Beloved and Class
This class is a UK Wired course that is all based around Toni Morrison's novel "Beloved." This Wired class explores the novel by using different variations of technology. In our daily discussions we use our iPad technology and we are beginning to research the possibility of using augmented reality technology. Beloved is the story of a woman, Sethe, and the events surrounding her murdering her baby to save her from a life of trauma. Sethe and her daughter, Denver, have to live with the repercussions of this when Beloved rises from the dead. In this website, Sabel and I are trying to explore the psychological aspects of beloved. Please also look at our class blog about Beloved.
