My early experiences with twitter consisted of looking at memes my friends reposted of news that was present at the time. Twitter also consisted of me following my schools football page and keeping up to date with football games and time. I also used twitter to look up tweets from famous people that I liked and wanted to know what was going on in their lives. I found this all beneficial because  it lets you share information quickly and start conversations with your friends . Twitter will be helpful in my future career because it is  filled  with practical tips, breaking news, and networking opportunities, it's a great place to promote your own work and get ideas. As  an   elementary  education teacher, hopefully in the future,  I  can use twitter to  save time, prepare students for tests, keep everyone organized and on top of important announcements. The "digital divide" refers to the gap between individuals, households, businesses and geogr...

  I chose SC.K2.CS-CC.1.2 which is the kindergarten level. This standard shows how to conduct basic words into searches and to exchange information and feedback to other students and teachers. I feel very prepared to implement this standard into my classroom because I am very skilled in tools like text messaging, WhatsApp, outlook, gmail, yahoo, etc. I feel prepared to teach my students these skills because mail is used to  easily relay important messages to their students, parents and the school staff . Also, report cards and school assignments can be easily and quickly submitted through  these networks .  I chose MA.2.AR.1.1, which is a mathematics resource for 2nd grade. The resource is to s olve one- and two-step addition and subtraction real-world problems. Addition and subtraction is crucial to understand because it is essential for day to day life. I would teach some of my students addition and subtraction by using websites like Cool Math ...

     I just started using Microsoft Word during Summer B of this year. During high school, I liked using Google Docs because I could share it with the people in my group and we could work on it together. Since using Microsoft Word I really like it and I think it is easy to use. They're definitely some features I am not familiar with yet, but I am still getting used to it. I have to say I like using Microsoft Word now just because it is easy, everyone at the university uses it, and there are a lot of cool features.     The Leader Educator Standard is most meaningful for me because I think it is very important for e ducators to seek out opportunities for leadership to support student empowerment and success and to improve teaching and learning. It is important for educators to do this because it helps students  shape and advance a vision for  empowered  learning with technology. This also important because it helps students adopt new resource...

     My name is Jena Masri and I am from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. I love the beach, reading, and hanging out with my friends. I have 4 sisters, a dog, and a cat. My favorite artist is Drake but I pretty much love all genres of music. I love going to football games and am really excited for Tallahassee seasons because I love the cold!     Starting 4th and 5th grade I was provided a laptop from my school to do most of my work and submit assignments. When I got to middle school I was given an iPad from school and I used iPads up to senior year of high school. I am pretty good at using tools like notability, showbie, and keynote. I have used technology all my life so I know a few things and am experienced.     I regularly use social media as my personal learning network. I look at Pinterest for ideas like halloween costumes, nail art, clothing ideas, etc. I use instagram to communicate with my friends and to share ideas I've learned. I use twitt...
