Twitter is a great social media platform for netwroking. I've met some of my closest friends and classmates on the app by simply having similar interests. I think it's a great tool to bond with like-minded people. I can see myself using Twitter in my desired career to meet other teachers and learn different teaching stlyes.

Digital divide can cause a hinderance to students' education. Since all students may not have access to the same resources it can be difficult for students to learn. The pandemic was evidence of that, since students were forced onto remote learning, many can testify that it has been harder to learn. In  my classroom I would want students to let me know if they may not have internet or a computer if needed in the classroom so that I can accomodate them.

Two software tools I would use in my clasroom are onenote and edmodo. One note is a great tool for taking notes. It allows studnets to take all notes on their computers and store it on the software program as well. Edmodo is a great communication tool where students can also communicate with me and each other.

I think badges are great for the classroom. We often see punishments in schools and not much praising. I think badges are a great way for studets to know that they are doing a great job. I've earned a basge on Typing. com , when I was in highschool.

    Hi Jamauri, I agree that Twitter is a great way to connect with people who share common interests with you. Also, the pandemic is a great example of how prevalent technology can be within education today, and it definitely has highlighted the digital divide. I also agree that badges are useful in letting students know they're making progress in the classroom!

 I have never used Diigo before I used it in this course. It has taught me so many thing I didn't even know I could do on websites. It taught me how to bookmark articcles and add sticky notes. Those are two of the features of Diigo I can see myself using in the future as I can see it being extremely beneficial in taking notes or doing research. Blogging has become a big part of my life, with so many different social media platforms there's always a way to blog or vlog(video blog) your experiences. Blogging is a great way to capture memories as well as emotions at the time. Blogging is also a great way to engage with family and friends when sharing just thoughts and feelings. Like in this course, seeing someone blog about a similar experience allows you to connect with them. A Web 2.0 tool that I would use is Schoology. I used this in highschool and it was a great way to ask questions when we weren't ion class like about homework. The questions also don't come directly t...

 I have been using microsoft word since middle school. I had a tehnology class in both middle and high school where we learned each tool and how to use them properly. This is one of my favorties to write on, I also realy like Google docs because of the autosave feature. Microsoft word is easy to ujse and it's useful having the wod count shown at the bottom at all times. The most meaningful standard to me is the one where "e ducators seek out opportunities for leadership to support student empowerment and success and to improve teaching and learning." I think this is the most important because students need someone in which they may look up to or just be able to learn from. I think a teacher showing leadership empowers students to also want to be leaders. Advocating for the best needs for all students is something I comepletely agree with becuase all students should have equal oppurtunities and accomadations when needed. A digital native is someone that was introduced to t...

 My name is Jamauri Denson. I am from Jacksonville, Fl and graduated from Saint Augustine High School. I am now attending Florida State University where I am studying education and economics. My career of choice is teaching as through person experience I know how impactful a strong influential teacher can be to a student’s confidence and success. My end goal for education is to become a principal so Incan inspire as many young minds as possible. In high school, I took an AP Statistics course. In that class we had a smart board where we would often have to write answers. This was a tool I had not used before and it was helpful in learning material through it’s various features. One of the most helpful features was the layer tool that allowed the teacher to write her notes on different students’ answers so we were able to know whether or not we were on the right track and how to keep going though steps of problem solving. One resource I have found endlessly helpful in supporting my l...
