 Hey Guys, 

    I want to talk about my experience with Microsoft Word. I have used other types of programs like Google Docs, but nothing compares to the experience that I have had throughout the years with Word. This program is definitely one of my favorites to use for many reasons. Firstly, it is much easier to navigate because growing up I have become more and more accustomed to its styles and the way to navigate it. There are so many different fonts and figuring out how to change the margins, font-size, and paragraphing is much simpler than other software's that are available. All Microsoft programs are very easy to use and having all of them together is quite convenient.

    The most meaningful standard is definitely the Designer. This is mainly because many students are visual learners and for younger students especially, it can help for them to be more independent with assignments and such. This style helps for each student to be accommodated and helps for them to each use their different learning styles as a way to succeed. In this standard it helps for each student to dive deeper into their education by learning with specific activities. Many students are visual learners and when an educator is a Designer they develop ways for students to learn, which fits all of their basic needs. 

    Using the term "digital native", truly helps to describe how much this generation truly is in tune with technology. Growing up most students that I was surrounded by had to help their teachers with the Elmo, SMART board, Word, etc. It was always something that I took note of because with a new generation who understands technology, there will come more advanced technology that they may not understand. Students will definitely be more equip because they have educators who understand technology, but at the same time reading has become much less popular due to the rise in technology. My learning experience was definitely much different then students in today's society, mainly because of the fact that teachers are now younger and many of them grew up in a time where technology was used frequently.

 Hey Blog,      This week I looked at a few different teacher's profiles on a school's website. I first looked at a Physics teacher's page and it included very helpful information for his students such as a teacher introduction, course calendar for each quarter, and different student resources if they are struggling. The second teacher that I looked at was an Art History and World History teacher. I found her site very helpful because it contained a syllabus, course calendar, graduation requirements, a class website, email, and many other helpful resources for both courses. At the end of the blogpost, I will share images and links to both of these.     There are many ways to be a highly productive teacher and one of the tools that I hope to use is online games and activities. These will definitely be beneficial in increasing student engagement and encouraging students to have fun learning each topic. My goal is to teach K-1 or Middle School English. This tool will be highly

 Hey blog,      Today I want to shed light on distance learning. For me, although it is quite easier, I find it harder to understand all the material. Especially with the way that assignments have exact dates and times when they are due it is super easy to procrastinate. I dislike the lack of connection between students in the class as well as trying to navigate assignments. But it is helpful to have a distanced learning course in order to find time for studying and having a schedule already set for specific assignments. As an educator, I think it is important to be able to navigate distance learning by holding Zoom courses, in order to create an honest connection even over a camera. It can also be beneficial to encourage outside activities that relate to class work, in order for students to feel as though they can learn in other ways.     Open Educational Resources are accessible to everyone who wishes to use them. These are highly beneficial for educators because it provides them wit

 Hi Blog,     I kind of enjoy Diigo. It is somewhat challenging to navigate, but other than that there are many practical things that are provided through Diigo. It is helpful in storing information as well as, finding other resources like images.      I have really enjoyed blogging. It is a beneficial way to relay information and it is very stress relieving. Being able to write out what you are thinking and having it formatted so simply is helpful in being able to navigate through important information. I really enjoy how BlogSpot puts the information in order by date and also how well it puts together embedded materials. There is not really anything that is bothersome when it comes to using this platform. And as an educator it is an easy and sufficient way of relaying due dates and important information. Before taking this class, I dabbled a little bit in blogging during Middle School just for fun shares and such. But I am so glad that this is heavily encouraged for success.     An i
