Blog Post #6

     My initial experiences using Diigo have been fairly pleasant. I thought that I would be able to manage figuring out how to work it on my own, but I definitely had to watch the tutorial videos. I like that on Diigo we are able to share a website with a group and even annotate it so that the group can also view it, I think that will be a useful tool as a teacher. One thing that I don't love about Diigo is that when you are on the group page, it is a bit chaotic and can be confusing to see what is what.

    I have really enjoyed blogging so far. I think that our blog assignments are a great way to incorporate what we are learning in class to our own understanding. I like blogging because I enjoy being able to complete my assignment while also being able to use comfortable language, and not have to be so formal. It is also fun to think that it is kind of like a little discussion with our professor every week. I have nothing bad to say about blogging, I enjoy it and Professor Bagby's tutorials in class on how to navigate Blogger make it a breeze.

    A Web 2.0 tool that I would personally choose to use when teaching would once again be Quizlet. It is such a useful tool for learning and studying. Students are able to view flashcards, take practice tests, or even participate in a little group competition on Quizlet Live with learning material. It is nice that I could make study guides on Quizlet for my students, or they could even make their own if they wanted to. The site is so easy to navigate and it is also an app.

      My name is Kaeli and I am from Jacksonville, Florida. I am currently attending Florida State University as a junior and pursuing my bachelor's degree in family and child sciences, with a minor in education. It is my goal to have a career as an elementary teacher after I graduate. I come from a big family, with 6 siblings. I have an English Bulldog named Piper and she is my whole world. I have always loved to read and I do so with any spare time I have between school, work, and a social life.      I believe that I most likely have as much technological knowledge and experience as the average college student. I have used technology in an educational setting since middle school, with presentations made using Powerpoint, or papers written in Word, but not much else outside of that. I suppose these last few semesters I have used technology in an educational setting more than ever, and can include Zoom in my technological abilities. I do not have any experi...

      Because I would like to teach elementary school, I chose a standard for third grade. Standard LAFS.3.W.2.6 essentially says that students will be able to write and work with others by using technology and the help of an adult. I believe that I would be prepared to introduce this standard to a class based on my own skills with technology. I think it would mostly consist of teaching students how to use the keyboard to type and other simple actions such as how to save their work, and how share it with others.     One of the resources on CPALMS that caught my attention was the Protect the Turtles: Solve Two-Step Word Problems. This resource helps students work through two-step word problems by creating problems relating to sea turtles and their survival. Students are encouraged to draw pictures or use counters to solve the problems by grouping, and learn how the groups can be used in multiplication, division, and subtraction. Students are also furthering their...
