  After learning how to use the survey tool on excel, I feel like it will be a very important tool in the classroom. As a teacher it is alway important to get feedback from your students and see what is working for the classroom. This survey tool will be very helpful with that. I feel third grade and up they will be able to use this tool. As a teacher you can ask the student what they liked about the lesson and what things didn't click for them.   With these Blogs it was interesting to see everyones views and each of the prompts we had to write about. Everyone had different methods they liked the best that we learning in the classroom. I liked reading about how they are going incorporate these methods into the classroom when then they become teachers.   A technology skill I would like to learn how to make a student worksheet online. I feel like that is a vital skill to have in a classroom. I want to be an Elementary Education teacher so worksheets are very important for a classro

A flipped classroom is one where instructional model that uses instructional videos watched outside of the classroom as the primary delivery format for content with class time reserved for interaction and discovery learning. This means you can give more time in the classroom to have the students ask question and do activity to help them learn the lesson. This is a great way for teachers for management of time, they can make sure they go over all the major points without rushing. Using technology as the back bone of the classroom is very important because it will help our students in the future.      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJN3gJoZqlY   I looked up MIT open education because it was interesting to me that they had put up classes on online free for the public to see. On the website they had a large amount of classes to pick from.  I think this should be more of a thing with colleges giving the opportunity to expand your knowledge in different areas.  https://ocw.mit.edu/index.

  It is very important to have classroom where everyone can learn. With technology this makes that easier. Students with special needs can text - to speech or a program to help them speak to you and other students. Students with learning disabilities can use recorded books it help them keep up with the class. I have actually used books on record before because I am dyslexic so through school my teachers have had available to me these types of resources. I have used digital books that read the book to you. I feel like the most challenging part of these adaptive technologies would be not having enough money to have them in the classroom. Or how fast technology changes     How I would use powerpoint to support Bloom's Taxonomy would be start off the power point with slides explaining the information and lesson. Then I would have pictures and examples to go more in detail. There would be slides with decision question so as a class we can talk about it. Then I have a slide with the ans

   Twitter is a great mode for communicated and sharing ideas with people around the world. With twitter you are able to find ideas with different teaching styles or even breaking new happening in the world of education. I do see how this could be effective tool for teachers, I am not sure it is a good fit for me. I am going into Elementary Education and I know teachers use twitter to communicate with their students in high education but this would not work for younger students. Also I feel like twitter is constantly changing because it is always updates new tweet, it seems kind of hard to keep up with.     I really enjoyed making the website. Using this sites I saw all the different tools you could use and different formats. I enjoyed how it was really up to you to come up with everything on your webpage.  This will give me some experience on making webpages in the future. After this project I can see what I can add more of to make my webpage better and more user friendly.       htt

I visited Florida State School website this school is a K-12 grade school. I visited the Elementary part of the website because I want to teach Elementary aged students.  On the main page has all the school wide activities going around and updates. The schools website is divided into different grade levels. Each teacher has a picture by their name and email address and a link to their own webpages. Teachers give students and parent updates about their own classroom. I believe that I will use sites like this when I become a teacher. I will have a website dedicated to my classroom and have all my information available to all my students and parents. I will put my class work online so my students will have them if needed.  After visiting the sandbox I learn what could be available as a teacher. I did not know all the different fun activites that I can use with technology  like that fun game using the iPads. I learn that there is way more activities that you can do on a smart board

     The Web 2.0 tool I think that is the most helpful would be Youtube because you are able to look up any video to help you with your teaching. There is pretty much a video for everything now days. Even students can use Youtube to help them with instruction, not every student will understand the topic at first, they can look up a video and get a second instruction. I am not sure about the use of Wiki because might be a little too confusing for students to use and it might not be a creditable resource.       Delicious seems like a wonderful site for sharing, finding, and storing web links. This seems like a great tool for teachers because they are constantly looking up on the internet new material to teach. With all these web search it might get hard to remember the links to all these sites. https://del.icio.us      I believe the biggest promise in education would be personal learning environment because students will be able to learn at their own pace and the lesson plan can be cha
