     I visited Canopy Oaks Elementary School here in Tallahassee. Many teachers on the site had their websites or sections of one with creative decorations or bitmojis (emoji-ish versions of them), or newsletters. Some information I saw on these pages were their favorite things and contact information. They also gave information about their degrees and their teaching experience.

      I  think there are multiple ways to use technology to be more professionally efficient and effective. I could see my classroom using websites like Slack as a communication for parents and students to ask questions about the class or homework. I can also use online websites like Notion or Google Calendar to keep track of important dates or important deadlines I need to get done. I could also use apps like the Pomodoro Timer to help me stay on task grading papers or creating lesson plans. 

    I did not really like working in canvas for this assignment. I thought it looked nice to the viewer if you know what you are doing. However, it was difficult/frustrating to learn at least on my device. If I got better with it, I would probably use it for assignment information.

This standard includes multiple benchmarks such as knowing different digital aids that are meant for communication and collaboration, being able to use the right keywords in searches and communication with teaches and peers like on email. The last two standards are being able to use technology to create solutions for problems while working with other students and teachers and lastly to be able to engage and receive helpful criticism during group projects. I would feel prepared to implement this standard by getting students use to online actions and services that include these benchmarks thought the year like emails (even if they’re badly written since they’re so young).        I selected 2nd grade social studies under the standard SS.2.A.1.1 regarding primary and secondary sources for historical inquiry and analysis. This subject had many resources such as 14 lesson plans abo...

 Hello everyone! My name is Jai-Ani (pronounced Jay-On-e). I am from Rochester, New York but I moved to Florida when I was 12. I am a psychology and sociology double major with a minor in education. Lastly, I am graduating so this is my last semester at FSU. I’ve used Microsoft programs during teaching experiences with other peers. I also have tutored students so I’ve used the online programs that the schools use for homework or extra practice. I’ve mainly used Microsoft programs and canva. This course was the first time I’ve used this website or Padlet, so I’m excited to see what other website I discover through this course.  As far as my PLN, I would definitely include the teachers and professionals I’ve met during my undergrad years. I feel like their knowledge has definitely helped me and shaped my career plans.  I also would include my coworkers. I work with RBT’s at a pediatric autism clinic and I always feel like I have learned something new about interacting with ...
