I learned so many new things from the website design assignment that I am very excited to use when I become a teacher. I used quite a few design principles when I was creating my website. I used contrast throughout my website by putting light colored words on a dark colored background. I also used repetition by using the same fonts throughout the website. I liked how easy weebly was to use, but I feel like there were a lot of things I wanted to add to my website that weebly didn't offer or I couldn't figure out how to do it.

I think that QR codes are very easy to use and I would love to incorporate them in my future classroom. When I have stations set up I could use QR codes that have instructions for each station. When I display art around my room I can put QR codes on each piece of art to say who made it. When the kids come in in the morning I could have a QR code on the wall with their morning work.

This teacher says that she used generative AI to create math problems for her students. She says that some of the problems seem to be a little above the curriculum and she's wondering if it is ok to give these problems to her students. I think that it is totally fine to use the problems as long as she looks through them first. She could go through the problems and do them herself to make sure they are easy enough for her students.

     My name is Jocelyn Starling and I hoping to be a first grade teacher one day. I am taking this class so that I can learn about technology that might help me in my future career. I am hoping to learn about resources that will make my job easier as well as resources that will make my futures lessons more interactive and engaging. I am going to save the resources I like to use in my future classroom.      In high school I volunteered at an elementary school and helped with aftercare and summer camps. During one of the summer camps, I used google slides to teach the kids about the solar system. This was very fun and engaging but I'm sure there are better programs out there for this purpose. I also used Canva to create attendance sheets for my aftercare kids. This was much more fun than the typical attendance sheets and it made it much more organized for the office.      My existing personal learning networks include teachers, friends, family...

For this assignment I analyzed my high school's website. The website is very organized and offers a lot of very helpful information about the school. The website has everything from upcoming dates, to school policies, to study materials. The only thing that I could find that had anything to do with teachers was the staff directory. However, all that is in the directory is a picture of each staff member and their email. This is very helpful for students and parents who might need to get in contact with a staff member. https://www.pcsb.org/stpete-hs I currently use google calendar to keep track of all of my assignments and due dates. I will continue to use this as a teacher to stay organized and on top of all of my important dates. I also would like to have a digital newsletter or blog where parents can stay on track with what we are doing as a class. And lastly, I will definitely be using Canva to design and decorate my classroom. I have learned about all of these technologies in th...
