Blog Journal 7

 When looking for a website, I looked at where I came from myself being Volusia County. The link to the webpage is https://www.vcsedu.org/ and there was a lot of information on the different pages. One of the main pages was a list of supervisors and faculty for the county. This would be if a parent had a problem with the school and needed a resource outside of just the school. You can also find information about school hours, and how to become a volunteer at one of the schools. 

As a teacher, I definitely imagine myself using a lot of different technology tools to get through my day. One being Google Calendar as I feel this will help me organize my log days. Another tool that I will use as a future teacher is Blogger for my classroom. I feel it will be a fun way to maybe do exit tickets, or start the day on a good note. I think technology is very relevant in schools, and will only become more popular, so it is important I have a good understanding of this information.

I LOVED the Canvas group tool, and had never used it before. I also did really like project 2 because it allowed me to meet new people in the class. I think the group tool was also really fun because it gave me the teacher POV. Prior to this, I didn't know how teachers made the different pages for their class. The only thing I disliked about it was that it didn't have an autosave feature. I feel like that would've made a big difference.

My name is Isabel Colom and I am a student at Florida State University. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my 2 best friends, Grace and Jordyn. Many of my friends would describe me as a kind and genuine friend, and I try to stay true to that. My friends and family are super important to me so I always try to be my complete self when I am with them. I also enjoy time being productive whether it is doing homework or running around doing errands.   I am keeping an open mind because prior to this course, technology has been somewhat frustrating for me to use in an educational setting. This all began when I took a computer course in high school that I absolutely hated, and then took another computer course through dual enrollment. I didn't do awesome in either of them which was super frustrating just because I would say I am somewhat tech savvy outside of the classroom. In the course, I am excited to start learning about some new programs and give it another shot.  My personal l

 During the web design assignment I was super excited to work on it because it was something I had never done before. Using Weebly was unique and unlike something I had done, so I had my fair share of questions to google. Overall the design elements I used included pictures, fonts, and colors. I think that adjusting the font and colors of the words on my website made a big difference in the overall appeal of the website. I overall really liked this assignment even though at times it was frustrating.    My Website! In my life currently, I don't use a lot of AI features just because I don't know how I feel about them. Specifically, a lot of people in my generation have been using the Snapchat AI feature. I feel as though the AI is tracking information through the messages sent by the user, so I choose not to partake. ChatGPT is also very popular with many of my classmates and I actually haven't used that platform either!! So as far as AI goes, I am not very familiar with the

       Throughout Elementary school I remember Microsoft programs being introduced to me. One of the first few that I learned about were Microsoft Word and PowerPoint because we would use them to make projects. In Middle and Highschool we focused on using these to advance our skillset and I even took a class to learn more about these computer programs. I do also like Google Docs but only for taking informal notes while being in class. For any assignment that needs to be in MLA or APA format, I would use Microsoft Word.      I really found concept 1.6 interesting on the "For students" tab just because I feel that is a necessary skill that technology can advance. The 1.6 Standard was titled "Creative Communicator" which is super important. Another side that I was able to see with this is that people learn differently, so students being able to communicate in different way allows students the opportunity to learn from each other. 1.6a wants students to use different pl
