Blog #7



So far, I've gotten better at remembering that I need to tweet from my EME twitter account. The benefits for using Twitter is that we get to see each others' ideas and thoughts about the same projects and it is easy to connect with one another. So far, I haven't really experienced any issues with Twitter, since I have been using it for about five years.

A new skill that I've acquired from working on the Web Page Design is inserting a calendar. I did not know how to do that before and now I do, which will be beneficial for me when I am a teacher. I liked this assignment because I will be doing this later on as a teacher, so it is giving me a chance to practice my skills.
I did not know how to use Diigo before, so everything we've learned from using it is a new skill to me. I love how you are able to comment and annotate articles and have the option to share them to the class or just keep them for yourself. Diigo can be used in classrooms for homework assignments or class discussions online.

     As a student, I have used Microsoft Word throughout middle school and high school and all of my teachers have used it too. Microsoft Word has always been what we used for homework, assignments, and essays as students and the teachers using it to post instructions on the projector. However, through the past couple years, we have stopped using Microsoft Word and started using GoogleDocs. I think we really started using GoogleDocs because it automatically saves all our work and we have share what we are working on with others easily and it goes along with GoogleClassroom.      I have had a lot of experience with copyright and fair use of materials from being in the IB program at my high school. From being in this program, we have had to turn our essays and assignments in on websites that tell our teacher if we plagiarized our work or not. We also focused on how to site all of our sources correctly to make sure we would not get in ...

(2) ILP "Design" - Sway

I created my Sway on the aspects of competitive cheerleading. Sway was pretty easy to use which was nice since it was my first time using the website. I chose to make my Sway about competitive cheerleading because it is one of my passions and it was something that I could teach. https://sway.com/ym3vnRqO0oQRHG8m

     So far with my experience with Twitter has been okay but it can be better. I have personally been using Twitter for five years so I know how to use it well. However it is hard for me to remember that I have one for this class because I am so used to only having the one account. To do better with this, I plan on putting notifications on my phone reminding me to tweet. I have found this project beneficial because I get to interact with my classmates and get to see what others think are important regarding education. This Twitter account might be helpful in my future career because I could show future employers that I have been interested in education for a long time and am well versed in what is going on in the education world.      The digital divide can affect success because if students are on the negative side of it, they may not have the technology do complete their school work or may be stuck with lower grade technology that won't give...
