Below is a link to my VoiceThread for my ILP #2. For this ILP I completed the design portion of the assignment and created my own Cahoot quiz for an upper level writing course, reviewing the PowerPoint I created for my first PowerPoint assignment.

Blog Journal 6: Teacher Websites

     Technology is becoming more and more intwined with education. Ever since I can remember and since I had access to a computer, my teachers have had websites online. This online engagement transitioned from pages on the school website to classes on Canvas and Blackboard. One example that I found from my elementary school is from my 2rd grade teacher. She teaches at James H. Cox Elementary School which runs from Kindergarten through Fifth grade. Other schools in the district go up to Sixth grade as well. She now teaches 3rd grade as clarified in her bio on the website. She includes things like weekly homework assignments and announcements online so that if a student loses any papers or a parent wants to check what work their student has for the week, it is easily accessible online. She also includes school supplies that are needed for the class, academic resources, the vocabulary for the unit they are on, and more. Each page of her website has a cute graphic that is vi...

Blog Journal 3: ELA Standards

     This week we discussed ELA standards and explored the different standards for different school levels. I decided to explore the 11th and 12th grade standards further since that would hopefully be the classes I would teach if I were to decide to follow this career path. Overall, the standards seem familiar, which is to be expected since I was in classes that utilized these standards less than two years ago. I would say I feel most prepared to teach students the skills to meet standard LAFS.1112.W.1.2, which focuses on writing informative texts to discuss complex ideas, essentially. I feel most prepared to teach this standard because I spent most of my time during my Junior and Senior year of high school learning how to write scripts for and produce a daily news show. The reason this really helped prepare me to teach this standard is the fact that producing a daily broadcast that does not eat into the school's class time requires me to pick and choose exactly what info...

Blog Journal 2: Originality in Writing

     Microsoft Word has become a standard in education. Once we stopped learning how to physically write, we began learning how to well, write. For the sake of convenience, we started being required to type out our writing assignments so our teachers could actually read them. Once we started writing longer papers, we started learning how to format them. Until college, I only really used Word for English assignments, however, in my Academic Success class that I took last year, we learned a few ways to use it as a study tool for other classes as well. I find that in my college classes, quite a few teachers use Word documents for their lectures and a lot of teachers and professors I've had use it to write their quizzes and exams.      Something that we also learn about as we write lengthier papers on Word is Copyright. It has been ingrained into our brains to never ever plagiarize anything since elementary school. We first learned about plagiarism as copying ...
