 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 for Students: I would like to use Microsoft and Google. I would include these two because these are two basic tools that I know will be used numerous time throughout their career as a student and even in your future career. You need to know how to use these before you can work anything. I would give little assignments that caused for them to find certain things in the software tools, like scavenger hunts.

      I feel like I have used work pretty much as long as I can remember. I started using Word I believe in high school, it could have been in middle school. 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...

 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...

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...
