Blog Journal #5

  • 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 geographic areas at different socio-economic levels with regard to both their opportunities to access information and communication technologies and to their use of the Internet for a wide variety of activities. As schools shifted to an online learning format, many students struggled with it. Due to their lack of access to the internet, they have a hard time doing their assignments because they don't know how the device is used and then have a hard time submitting their work for credit. Some causes of digital divide can be low income levels, geographical restrictions, or lack of motivation to use technology. I may experience students in the classroom that don't know how to use certain tools in technology, so what I will do is help them by contributing a whole day just explaining to the students the tools they should know how to use and how to submit their assignments. 
  • Academic Software is a modern workplace deployment solution, where every type of user can access, deploy and license the tools they need through the single sign-on of their institution. Two software tools I will be using in my class is debuggers and code editors. A debugger is a software tool that can help the software development process by identifying coding errors at various stages of the operating system or application development. I would like to use these with my future class because it allows software engineers and developers to fix errors in a program before releasing it to the public. A code editor makes writing and reading the source code easier by differentiating the elements and routines so programmers can more easily look at their code. I would like to use these with my future students because they help programmers shorten development time and code more efficiently.

 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...
