   Copyright means when you copy someone else's picture, story, song, or other work. It protects the creator's work from unauthorized duplication or use. Copyright is limited by "fair use," which means certain uses of copyrighted material or research may be considered fair. I would deal with these concepts as a teacher by making the students aware of what these things are and how to create citations. When developing my instructional materials for class I will protect my own work by placing a copyright symbol on it or putting my name on it. 

   Academic dishonesty refers to committing or contributing to dishonest acts by those engaged in teaching, learning, research, and related academic activities. Cyberbullying is the use of cell phones, instant messaging, e-mail, chat rooms or social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter to harass, threaten or scare someone. A solution for academic dishonesty I would use in my future classroom is making sure my students aren't working together during quizzes and tests. I will walk around the classroom while students take these tests and make myself visible to them. I will also make sure my students know that I am there to help with any questions they may have so they don't go looking on the internet or other people to do their assignments. A solution for cyberbullying that I will use in my classroom is explaining how harmful it is for students participate in this. I will also make them aware if they are ever involved to let someone know. Cyberbullying harms individuals and I will let my classroom know they should always come to me if someone is cyberbullying them. 

   The new skills I learned from working on the Newsletter Design assignment is how to create columns on Microsoft Word, how to add icons and photos, and how to shade different areas of the document. I could improve my newsletter in the future by spacing out my column so everything is balanced and to make sure there are no white spaces. I can use the skills I learned from this assignment in my future classroom. Whenever I want to create classroom newsletters for my elementary class I will know to create columns, permission slips, and reminders for the week.

 I just started using  Diigo   for technology class and it was pretty easy to find all the steps to add a  bookmark . I  don't really like the set up of the website cause it looks kind of older and not visually pleasing. There is a lot of words and sentences everywhere and it's a lot of information. I would probably not use this website if I didn't have to. Diigo reminds me of twitter with how the set up is and how it has a blue  background. Even though I have never used this website it was easy to find everything and annotate my articles.  My experience with blogging is that I like the set up and everything is easy to find. I like how I can create bullet points so I can put down all my information. I also like how I can view my friends blog post and can comment on them. I think the website is visually pleasing because you can add photos and have banners on the side. I...

 My experiences with EME2040 is that it's amazing and includes super fun activities! What experiences I liked in the classroom is all the fun assignments we do and how we could be creative while also following a rubric. I liked assignments like the web design, newsletter design, and to create a lesson plans. I disliked some of the tools we used like Diigo because it was hard to figure out all the tools and I had to use the YouTube videos given to me to figure the assignment out. When I am a teacher, I will use tools like Weebly to create calendars, announcements, resources, etc.  to help improve the classroom experience. This will improve my classroom experience because my students will be aware of all the activities going on in the class and be up to date with everything.  Open educational resources is someone teaching, learning, and research materials that were purposely created  to be free for the user to own, share, and modify.  The open educational res...

     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...
