  •  The standard I selected was being able to use technology in order to problem solve. I do feel prepared in teaching this standard based on my current skill set. I have been using technology in this process since the sixth grade. It can be used to formulate a chart in order to understand better. It can be used as a tool for research on a problem which promotes interpretation of data. It can also be utilized to find similar experiences which can then yield results. I will continue learning in order to be fully versed in this area but I do believe I would be able to teach this and have students meet this standard in my class.
  • I selected resources for second grade social studies. In this I found many lesson plans, videos, and important questions to ask. I can use these resources as a way to meet standards easily. These lessons are very through and I would adapt them into my teaching philosophy. It is always great to already have some kind of outline to use. The interactive pages I can display as a class on a projector and work together in order to further foster togetherness and class understanding. These resources will be of great help they can serve as a standard to follow in the classroom.
  • When being a teacher, internet searching proficiency is extremely important. Often we will need resources and videos that we need to quickly access. Additionally sometimes a student might raise a question and using the internet is a quick way to provide context for an answer. Lastly, this proficiency is needed when looking for interactive games or videos that are needed in class. The internet skill that I will often use is the advanced search. Often when looking things up in front of class the internet might yield strange results so being able to specify and efficiently find information will be very useful in class. 
  • AI in education is a hot topic in education. While many people agree it will be detrimental, I think if used correctly it can greatly help both teachers and students. As a student, using AI to cheat is obviously not the correct way to use it. I have found myself using it to structure my thoughts. Asking for charts or outlines for what it is that I am doing. As a future educator I see myself teaching student show to properly ask and use AI because it is important to maximize its output. Additionally, it can be used to help shape lessons, schedules, and other processes.  .

Copyright and fair use are necessary when working. Often people make a living off the images, music, or videos they make so it is essential to know how to work with this. As a teacher, it's important to know the tags that are used. Most of the time finding these won't be that difficult thanks to many resources such as websites that help find copyright fair use items. Most the time there won't be a problem because they aren't being used in a commercial way, just educational. With the students, it is important to inform them about the different rules before starting any project where it is necessary. It is important for them to credit and quote any source they use. I do not have any other questions about this, because I learned in class. As long as I have been a student, academic dishonesty has been an issue. Before, it was about rightfully crediting and quoting ideas and sources, and copying others papers. Nowadays, it also includes using AI to generate papers and other ...

  My experience with distance learning began with the COVID-19 pandemic. At first, there were no zoom meetings. Teachers would post the assignments we had for the week and we would complete them by the due date, which is pretty similar to the asynchronous online courses I've had in college. As my junior year began, we used daily zoom meetings at the time of our classes. Our teachers shared their screens and gave us assignments in class that were only open for that period on canvas. I believe they were both very effective but when it comes to a more rigorous course, I would rather have the teacher in the meeting because we can actively participate and get involved. I have yet to take a distance learning course at FSU and I am looking forward to seeing how that experience goes next semester.  An OER are open resources that educators can use and reuse without permission. They can be modules, textbooks, or educational games. A great resource I was able to find was  https://oe...

After visiting some school websites, I ended up on West Broward High School's site. They are a school in the county I used to go to school in and I found some information. All teachers are listed with a link to their website. I mostly found their names, grades, pictures, and schedule for class. Whenever I tried to go further I had to log in and obviously my high school account is deactivated. The link is here.   I envision myself using different types of technology to accomplish my responsibilities more efficiently and effectively. One of the productivity tools I would like to use is Class dojo. Through here I can update parents on what they are up to and it has a point system. In my last job, we used this tool to give the students points based on their performance and behavior. Another great tool is Google Classroom. This can be used to post powerpoints, turn in assignments, and post homework and resources that the students can find with ease.  Working on assignment 2 w...
