Blog post #6

      Blogging in my opinion has been a very fun and new way to express what I have learned in this class in a way that I can share with everyone. One of my favorite parts of the blog has been the ability to share what I have learned and understood from this class weather that be applying or talking about an assignment that we went over in class. Something that has made blogging tough is that some ideas it is harder to blog about and it can seem kind of run rather than me truly sharing something that would be meaningful. Overall Blogging is something that I have enjoyed very much with this class and would like to find a way that maybe I could use it in my classroom when I start teaching down the road.     Generative Ai was actually very useful when I asked it to help me make a lesson plan. I gave it the topic and the time frame for a lesson on woman's rights and it helped me make a lecture while also giving me videos and books that might also aid the students le...

      As AI has progressed its use in school classrooms has become one of many conversations and controversy as teachers don't know the best way to implement it so it can be helpful and not just a tool that students use to cheat. When Ai first became huge in school it had teachers worried as they thought they could ever tell if a student really did the work or not. Since then there has been many Ai detectors that teachers can use so that they can see if only the student used Ai. Now I think there is enough in place for teachers to start discussing ways that students can use Ai in a more helpful way so it can assist them and make the job for the teacher slightly easier.     Social media tools like Pinterest and Instagram have been super helpful when it comes to growing my PLN. On instagram I am able to connect to other teachers and instructors and school districts to help grow this and reach out and see what ideas they implement in the classroom. While on Pintere...

           One standard that I noticed has something to do along the lines where the student would have to identify the correct technology to achieve or finish a project. I feel pretty prepared to implement this standard in my class one way or another as I would like to have projects done through the year in my class and different types of technology may be useful and making a project better or stand out compared to the rest. Also with how the world is ever changing technology understanding is becoming more and more vital to secure jobs and teaching students the basic principles and understandings can open many more opportunities for them for jobs down the road. I would also never ask students to use a type of technology that I do not know how to use thats why I would feel comfortable to include this standard in my class.          I picked a standard in the social studies section for 9-12th grade because I want to teach U.S History ...

      Copyright and fair use are two very serious topics that can create a lot of issues and can get people in a lot of legal trouble that they don't know they can get into. Wanting to be a U.S history teacher a lot of primary sources and articles are mostly public domain as they created and shaped America and the way that it is today but there is a lot of other issues because say I see a cool lesson plan or a funny SNL skit that uses a historical situation if I don't credit it the right way it can get me in trouble. Most schools and districts have policy's in place if copyright is caught and normally it can start as a warning but then in tcan start to ramp up to fail the assignment to even expulsion from the school. I think now more than ever it is easy to combat copyright issues and students know the consequence's.     With tech there are a lot of positives when it comes to teaching the classroom and can make lesson planning for the teacher a lot more simple, ...
