     I have had a pretty good experience in EME-2040. One thing I like about the classroom experience is working with the people around me. One thing I did not like in the classroom experience is the use of padlet for in class assignments. When I am a teacher, one thing i can do to improve the classroom experience is to heavily incorporate small group activities.

    Open educational resources are free fully accessible learning resources for educators. These resources can be adapted in classrooms to better education. An online resource about open educational resources I found is a website for Open Educational Resources Commons. This resource is a digital library of online educational resources that can be used by teachers. https://oercommons.org/

    New skills I acquired from working on assignment 4: PowerPoint information dissemination was using SmartArt. One thing I liked about this assignment was role playing teaching my future class as I am very excited to get into my career. One thing I disliked about this assignment was the difficulty behind recording my audio in PowerPoint. One way I can improve for next time is recording the audio for the presentation and have a better understanding of how to do so in the application.

      ELA Technology standard LAFS.2.RL.3.7 is for the grade level 2. This standard is aimed for students to gain an understanding of characters, the setting and the plot of a story using a print or digital text through its words and illustrations. I would feel prepared to implement this standard based on my current skill set. This is because I am familiar with online poster creators which is one of the technology tools linked to this standard.     One of the resources in CPALMS Educator Toolkit is the Responsible Decision Makers Use Technology lesson plan. This is specific to grade level 2 in the subject area of science. The resources available to support Standard SC.K2.CS-CP.2.2 can be used in my teaching through guiding me, the teacher, through the lesson. This will help facilitate my teaching of the lesson by breaking down how the students should break up the simple task into small steps though coding.     Internet searching is important when being a teacher. It is important to be

Rebecca Garcia     I am a 20 year old junior studying Human Development and Family Sciences in university. I plan to be an elementary school teacher one day in the future. I cannot wait until I am able to get into the field of education and begin to make a difference. Making a difference in the lives of my students will be most important to me as we, as teachers, will be shaping the minds of the future generation.     My prior experiences using technology in an educational setting are with the applications Notability, Canvas, Google, and Microsoft Office programs. These prior experiences have influence over my learning and education. Using technology in an educational setting is impactful because it facilitates further learning as there is more access to additional information. These influences affect me in terms of learning more than what is given to me in my school courses through the access to the internet.     My main personal learning networks consist of TikTok and Pinterest.

      Copyright and fair use are topics that are important for teachers and students. As a teacher, developing my own instructional materials, I would deal with this concept by avoiding any form of photocopying as I am unclear about my ability to photocopy legally. Also as a teacher, having students create their own work, I would deal with this concept by promoting the same concept of not photocopying to my students and try to clearly explain he difference between copyright and fair use so he students are educated. I have learned how I would be able to protect my rights on my own work through a Creative Commons license.      In classrooms today, there are issues with technology implementation. One technology implementation issue is academic dishonesty. One way I will help resolve this issue in my future classroom would be to fully educate my students about how to properly cite their work. If not eduacted on the subject, it is hard to understand that you are being academically dishonest
