  1. The grade level I chose is Kindergarten. The standard I chose addresses teaching students how to produce writings and exploring new digital tools. I feel that I am working towards mastering this skill set. I am able to produce writing but am still unfamiliar with some digital tools. 

  2. The resource I chose was “Parts with Purpose: Examining the Parts of a Book.” This resource works for kindergarten language arts. This resource goes over fiction and nonfiction, definitions of author, illustrator, front covers, titles, back covers, title page and publishers. I would use this resource for a classroom of kindergarteners. The parts of the book are important to know. We are always surrounded by books whether it is a physical copy or online. This is an essential skill to have from an early age. 

  3. As a teacher, it is important to be a proficient internet searcher. You want to make sure you are sharing accurate information. Moving forward, I will use Google's “advanced search.” I will use this because this allows me to use less words and still get the results I want. I will be able to get the results I want faster. There is not an internet searching skill I currently use, but I would like to learn more!

  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...

  The school website I visited is Florida State University’s Undergraduate Accounting page. On the public page, I see a short summary of the class that includes what knowledge students will be gaining and what to be prepared for. In addition, it states requirements and prerequisites for students who want to take this class. Lastly, the grade system is explained and includes the grade needed to pass the course.  FSU Undergraduate Bulletin In the future, I envision using technology in my classroom to accomplish my professional responsibilities more efficiently and effectively. For example, I envision myself using technology to communicate with students as well as parents. Technology is an effective way to communicate with many people at once. This may be through a Facebook group or through a page like Canvas. A teacher productivity tool I would use would be Weebly. This way, I will be able to create a website for students and teachers to access and receive information.  I h...
