A Get to Know Me.

     Hello, I am currently and undergraduate studying to become a future educator. It took some time for me to reach this decision actually, and to be quite honest I am not sure if this is what entirely what I want to do, I have my worries, but I feel like that's normal. I am more so worried about the fact of me being able to live comfortably the way I want, not that I won't like my profession. Sadly, educators salary is not nearly as much as it should be, but I really want to do this profession so I'm pushing on. 

    I'd say I used a good amount of technology over the years as a student. You honestly can't get away without using technology now a'days. I've used it for as long as I can remember but certain apps I am still not familiar with. And of course, there is always room for improvement with my tech knowledge. So, this class will be of help. 

    Most of my learning resources that I use to help me better support my learning needs and goals are online. I think that is because if it is online it is more accessible and most of what I am learning is already online. So, I use any trustworthy site or video I can that will help further my knowledge in a certain situation. Aside from books, I love to read actual books, I don't know why put I would much rather prefer a real book than e-books. Unless of we're talking about those thick, big books for class then it can definitely be an e-book, and I would much prefer it that way.

At my school we mainly used google docs for our assignments so that's why I'm not so sure when exactly did I start using word. I think I like both about the same, Word can be very annoying at times to use, but that is what I prefer to use. I am not sure why I prefer to use it, it's just easier access I believe.      I have selected the ISTE Standard for students to be most meaningful to me. To me this standard is basically saying how technology can be used as a tool and a healthy thing used to help the kids, and not seen as this evil thing that will stunt their learning experiences or growth. It is evident that the world as we know it is changing, we are relying more and more on technology  everyday. K-12 educators has to know this and work with  this, their students will have to rely on...

      Copyright and fair use are a tricky thing to navigate, but I don't think it would be too hard as a teacher. When trying to develop your own materials as a teacher I don't think copyright will be hard to navigate as long as you're checking what is being used. The same caution you use to create your stuff can be give to your students to help them steer clear of this as well. I have not learned anything new, I pretty much knew everything that was being presented.       I would like to discuss cyberbullying. I for one am extremely against bullying in any format. To propose a solution to this issue I would for one let the children know what can be defined as cyberbullying and make sure they know what the consequences will be if I find out that it is happening. There will be no room in my classroom for any kind of bullying and I will be letting that be known throughout the year.       I feel like there could possibly be a way A...
