  Example Teaching website. The website I visited was an 11th-grade English teacher Mrs. Barefoot. Mrs. Barefoot teaches at a high school in Mcmurray, Washington County, Pennsylvania. I found it to be a very helpful and easy to follow site. https://barefootk.weebly.com/academic-english-11.html Looking at the site, it is built and hosted by a web hosting service Weebly, the contact page gives a large amount of information to students primarily Mrs. Barefoots' email and web page but also the classes, location, and subject for the semester.  Students can quickly confirm they are looking at the correct class information from this contact page.  The other tabs are specific to class and MLA layouts required during the classes. Mrs. Barefoot appears to teach 11th grade English and 10th grade Honors. The contact suggests she also teaches Theatre Arts but there is not a matching tab for details on that class.  Both the English and the Honors have links that will automatically either bring u

  I have not used Diigo before and I have found it to be very difficult because of how it was formatted, I did not like the fact that if I wished to contact my team to get information or to start the project. I would equate it more to the Twitter forum than what I originally thought it would be like (Facebook forum). I understand the concept of the website and I understand it’s more of a Twitter for teachers, but I do have a hard time navigating the site.  I have written articles for websites and magazines in the past, they were mainly on websites such as Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, however, before this class, I had not written any type of blog. Blogging is fun and I like that I can share large amounts of information that is interesting as well as getting information out in a productive manner. I have learned that the blogging process is akin to writing than it is just sending out a post on Facebook. One of the web 2.0 tools I would like to bring to everyone's attention is Dr

  My first experience with Twitter was in high school. As the student responsible for distributing information about our club I was asked to create a Twitter account.  I used this account to post details about upcoming events and details about members or past events. The information was available to other high school students with Twitter accounts, frequently from the same club. I did not like Twitter, perhaps it was not the correct tool for the job. I did not like its limited editing ability, particularly the fact you could not back-track and edit entries.  It seemed rather two-dimensional compared to Facebook and Instagram which I prefer, and seem to be more three-dimensional forms.   My experience with Twitter, using it perhaps in the wrong application leads me to feel that I would likely use it in a very limited way. It may be a good 'instant' communicator, getting details out to large groups fast but I think I would more likely use Facebook or Instagram first. The digital

  The grade I chose was grade 1.  In that grade, the children are expected to learn and understand how to do scavenger hunts and be able to open different formats of textbooks along with understanding how to operate blogs, storyboards, and even how to operate Pixar graphics. With my current level of understanding of technology and teaching abilities, I believe I'd be able to teach first graders the requirements needed by the ELA. Because these are first graders who are not only very haphazard when it comes to concentration but this is also a territory that most people would see as being too easy and overlook its key element in everyday life.  The strategy I chose was the Zero to Hero element. This helps students learn not only how to count to ten but how to count beyond ten. This strategy allows them to not only be excited to use but also they are able to use what they learn in real-life moments. The friendly competition to find Zero the Hero and even the waiting every ten days to
