Blog #1: About Me



    Hello! My name is Riley Roth. I am a freshman at Florida State University. I am a Special Education Major in hopes of being a Special Needs Teacher at a school. Some of my favorite things to do are go to the beach, go to the gym, and try new foods!
    All throughout my previous years in school, I have used computers. I feel there is not a time I do not remember using a computer or laptop for school work and class. Although I frequently used computers for school growing up, I do not have much experience with learning how to actually use the features on the computer. I am comfortable with programs such as Canvas and Google Drive, but my knowledge does not go much farther than that. I am hoping to expand my knowledge about computers and technology throughout this class! 
    I feel I have reliable online and offline resources that help support my personal learning network. One example of an online network would include social media. I use social media to get ideas and learn from other people. An offline resource would include my peers and older mentors. I also am able to use them to help guide me in the right direction.

    Hey Riley I am so glad you're in this class. I think it will defiantly help your confidence with media. I love using Google docs too because it is easy and convenient. Hopefully we find some other easy and helpful cites.

  By working on the Web design assignment, I acquired many new skills. I had never created a website before and this was my first time. Because of this, I initially had some difficulty. However, while working through the process I got the hang of it and was able to finish my website. I actually had a lot of fun doing it! I like that it was easy to navigate, but I wish that there were more layout options. In the future, I will use what I learned to create a page for my classroom. This will have information about my class that is accessible to students as well as parents. https://rileyrotheme2040.weebly.com/   Working with Diigo taught me a lot. I learned how to communicate and share ideas with peers in one space. These applications can be useful in the classroom because it will give my students and I a place to engage with each other. I can use it to work with team members to collaborate and share ideas.  Technology is how people stay aware of changes. Technology also play...

  When a person has a copyright for their work, it allows others to use it while the owners also receive proper attribution and sometimes payments. Copyright gives others permission to utilize someone else's work. Copyright is essentially protection when using another person's intellectual or creative work. In education, it is often that teachers need to use someone else's work to teach the material. As a teacher, I feel I would deal with these concepts by primarily teaching with my own material. Then I would add on by using someone else's video, writing, or book as examples in order to help my students understand the material more in depth. Sometimes, another person may give my students extra information I did not or it could provide another perspective. The Fair Use guidelines are featured in the Copyright Act of 1976. The purpose of Fair Use guidelines is to allow people to use someone else's works as long as it is for nonprofitable education purposes. A...

  I learned a lot from completing Assignment 5 PowerPoint Interaction. For example, I learned how to hyperlink to a different page on the same PowerPoint. I also learned how to disable the “next” setting on the PowerPoint. Although I had a sound on a PowerPoint slide, it was not the correct way. I struggled figuring out how to do this. Next time, I will make sure to improve this when adding sound.  As a teacher, I will definitely use data collection (surveys) in my classroom. I may teach elementary school, therefore there is not one single subject to teach. However, I could collect data such as the student’s grades on a test. I could compare the data between my students and see the average test grade. This will help me grasp where most of my students are when understanding the class material.  I found some interesting topics while reading my classmates blog’s. I really enjoyed reading what they learned from the assignments they were given. It is interesting to see what di...
