Instagram can be used in a PLN similarly to twitter as a way to communicate with other teachers to gather new ideas.

      For this blog I used Miss. Diana's website that we used on our Miro Board for this week. Her website is spread out very nicely with a welcome paragraph at the top with links to an about me tab, a calendar, and a breakdown of the week. After that she has her classroom core valued listed out which I think is very cute. She also has a very cute bitmoji on the bottom of her website.  https://missdianaandme.weebly.com/     As a teacher I envision myself using a lot of technology in the classroom. I really like the teacher websites we looked at in class, I had never seen something like that before. I will most likely make a website like this to implement in my classroom. I will be teaching in a special needs classroom so certain students may not be able to relay information to their parents in the ways that my website could.      I am iffy on my experience working with PB works. I was unfamiliar with the website a week ago so I...

Blog Journal 5

      My early experience using Twitter is not very broad. I have always been a tech geek for as long as I can remember, but Twitter is something I was never truly able to figure out. Recently, my friends and roommates have been teaching me how to use Twitter. My personal Twitter follows a lot of sports accounts as well as celebrities I like to keep up with. Slowly but surely I am getting the hang of it. I believe Twitter could be beneficial when I begin teaching as I will be able to search for educational tools.      I think the digital divide is a much larger problem than it is made out to be.

As a teacher, I will do my very best to help each and every student have access to some sort of technology to do their schoolwork. My approach would be to give students time in class to...

      One of the biggest skills I have learned from Assignment 5 is how to add sound bits into a PowerPoint as well as how to remove navigation buttons from a slideshow. I liked this assignment a lot as I feel that interactive games are very useful in a classroom. The only part I had trouble with was navigating through a slideshow without the ability to use buttons.            When reviewing my classmates blogs something I found very interesting was everyone's websites. We were all tasked with the exact same assignment yet somehow ours were all so unique. I loved seeing everyone's creative touch on it. I also liked how diverse everyone's grade levels and subjects were.     I am not quite sure what technological skills I'd like to learn next. Prior to this class I thought I was very up to date on educational technology. That has since been proved wrong. I think I'm just excited about how I can continue to learn new programs...
