 The Web Design assignment was actually a pretty fun assignment to complete. The Weebly website is very user friendly and easy to navigate. It was fun getting to design all of the pages in any way I wanted to. I do not have any complaints about the assignment, I thought it was a fun and easy project, all of the design elements are right there with a click of a button. I will actually very likely use this site during my future career as a teacher, if it us authorized. I think it is a great way to have a place with information that can be easily accessed by parents and students, and allow an extra form of communication.

I think that Diigo is a great site for both students like myself and for teachers. It is a little complicated to use at first, but once you get the hang of it, it can be really useful. It is a great tool for both team and individual work as you can share links to websites, annotations, leave notes, and it can all be published for everyone in a group to view. In the professional teaching world, I think it would be very helpful to use among teachers who commonly work together in order to share resources and notes with others.

Because technology is so engrained in society now, it is also becoming continuously incorporated into the education community. That being said, technology is constantly advancing, so teachers really have to make an effort to keep up with all of these innovations. Professional development for teachers now includes technology workshops and learning.

She provides links to many different tools and explanations to go along with them. Her content is intended to help educators (and parents) understand different technology and resources available to them and students.

      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...

   I would say that I have a good experience with Microsoft Word. I have been using it for years and I also took an introduction to technology class, so I know my way around it well. I have used other word processing softwares like Google Docs, but I find that I prefer Word. Since I have used it for so long, it is easier for me to manage and I also feel like Word has a much bigger variety of tools available than other softwares. I have written countless papers on Word for school, and I have also used it for other school projects, such as creating a brochure.      I believe that all of the standards for educators are very important. They all have their different roles in improving teachers and therefore improving learning for students. However, I do believe that for an educator to be a learner is probably the most important standard. Educators can learn to better their teaching methods by observing and practicing other teachers strategies. Teachers can learn by k...
