 Teacher pages

A teacher's page on a school website contains information that can be used for students and parents to see. For instance, teachers usually provide a standard biography introducing students and parents to their classroom and providing parents with contact information. Teacher pages often have an attached calendar to their page to help keep students and parents organized with dates and course materials. Teacher pages also contain resources that can help students with certain subjects and have additional help outside class. Teacher pages on the school website are a great tool to help teachers stay in contact with parents and students throughout the school year.


 Using technology 

Having a good understanding of technology would be beneficial in the future professionally. Through this course this semester, I have learned more about teacher productivity tools that could be useful in the future as a teacher. Using productivity tools like Google Docs and Google Calendar are great tools for personal use as a teacher. Making a Google calendar for events like meetings, class activities, or personal use can help teachers stay organized in their classrooms. Another productivity tool is using social media like Twitter and Instagram to get creativity and to connect to other teachers to share ideas. Technology will be used in the classroom, so educators need to stay informed about updated productivity tools. 


Assignment 2 Experience

Assignment 2 was an engaging assignment to complete with a group. This assignment was challenging to do since creating a canvas page was new to us, but once we created our home page, it was a lot easier to navigate canvas. As a group, it was interesting to see everyone's perspective of the different websites and everyone creating their own website evaluation form. I found this assignment to be a great tool to know how to use in the future.

 Diigo Before taking this course, I have never used Diigo, so this is my first experience with the software. I found Diigo to be a creative tool to connect with other classmates and be able to provide websites that are accurate to the course materials. For instance, being able to post educational software that other people can see gives me an idea about future software to use as an educator. I also found Diigo helpful in staying organized with different websites. Blogging Using Blogging is also a new experience for me. I found Blogger quite challenging at first, but getting used to it during our weekly blog post has helped me become familiar with the software. I have learned how to post a blog, post pictures, and be able to see my classmate's posts. Blogger is a great platform to share your thoughts and be able to post information. I believe I would use Blogger in the future to share information with coworkers or maybe parents.   Web 2.0 tool Taking this course has exposed me to ma

My Microsoft Word Experience  Throughout my years of school, I used Microsoft Word for most of my assignments and projects, mainly in my upper level of education. In my experience with Microsoft, I find it quite helpful software to create essays and other lengthy assignments, K-12 my main experience was taking a computer class in the tenth grade and first learning how to use the software. This helped set up my other core knowledge with Microsoft and made it easier for my other classwork. Also using Microsoft Word at FSU has helped me create more types of projects, for example, our newsletter assignment. The only other software I have used in the past is Google Docs, which is also helpful software but doesn't have as many designs or tools as Microsoft has.   ISTE Standard for Educators ISTE is short for International Society for Technology in Education, and it is broken down into five different standards. ISTE provides students and educators with technology standards that are taught
