 Yes, I have experienced distance learning, just like we all had to during the initial beginning of COVID-19. The only thing I liked about distance learning was the fact that I could do my work no matter where I am. The negative thing about distance learning is the fact that it was distant. Distance learning was hard and bad for me because I do my best when I am in a classroom and have structure, while I was home their was a lot of room for me to do other things, and my attention span is very short. It was extremely hard to focus on my work and I had little to no motivation to do so. So, my grades took a turn for the worse unfortunately. As a future educator, I would send encouraging messages, and let the children know that I am available for any questions or concerns.  OER is just basically as the text describes it, pieces of work that have been book marked by someone else that lets you use their work the best way you see fit. I  have found a website that centers itself...

I am not totally sure what design principles mean, but I used a series of things to construct my web page. I did not like this assignment. Mainly because it's just like the assignments are literally back to back and no break, but aside from that I don't think it was so bad. It's cool to learn about how to design a web page. he skills I learned will definitely be helpful in the future because as a future teacher, being as tech savvy as you can is great.  Link to my website .  I do not use AI tools, unless Siri counts as AI. I use her to set reminders everyday or set my alarms. It's very helpful to use it when your hands are full or anything, so yes I'm motivated to use it. No, I don't have any questions.  I used ChatGPT once before to help me with an essay prompt in another class. I wasn't sure exactly what the prompt was trying to say so I didn't know how to continue and ChatGPT helped a lot with that. I did'nt really learn anything about AI chatbots...

 I chose to look at  FSUS for a class page. The information shows pretty basic things without giving out too much information. Some of them has their Amazon wishlist attached to their site incase anyone would like to help in the classroom, I think that's smart. Other than that they have pretty generic things like, a get to know me, newsletter, permission slips and etc.   6259 I don't think there's any way that you could get away with not using technology in a classroom so, it's pretty easy to envision myself using it as a way to be more efficient. I could use things like canvas to provide the children with deadlines and timelines for assignments. It helps keep everything organized and where they should be. Canvas is also pretty easy to navigate and will help keep everything flowing smoothly.  It was fine for the most part. Nothing wrong with using Canvas for this it was actually easier than I expected. I would pretty much use it just as everyone else is using it. To ...

 My initial experience with Diigo was not too interesting. I like the fact that it has the different tags for different things. For example, it has the annotated tab, images, and others. There is not too much that I don't like about Diigo. I haven't got much a feel of it.  My experience with with blogging has been pleasant. It is a pretty easy site to navigate and get through. I like the fact that you can have a group setting I think that is a good add-on to the site if you wanted to do as were doing and have it as a class thing. I've learned plenty of new terms from this blogging process. Like last weeks term, digital divide etc.  There are a lot of Web 2.0 tools available that would efficiently get the job done for future teaching assists.  I think PBS learning media would be a good tool to use for my future in teaching. It has videos, games, photos and other things that will be helpful to hep children understand a subject. It will also work as a new fun way to int...

 Twitter : I do not really interact with people, the most that I will do is like a post. By liking the post it brings more posts onto my feed like that, which limits what I don't want to see. So, that is what is beneficial to me. It can be helpful in my future career because twitter lets you follow certain topics. I could follow topics that pertains to my career, which will help me get more information that I may not be aware of.  Digital Divide: Digital divide affects students the higher their education goes. So, about the time you reach middle school is when teachers will be expecting more out of your through technology. This will cause students to maybe get bad grades on assignments or come up short of the things asked of them. A few causes of the digital divide could be money, time, and effort. The Digital divide will only make me implement a few technology starters lesson. I would basically take time to teach the children basic technology tools.  Academic Software fo...
