In my K-12 experience as a student in public schools, I feel like I had significant exposure to Microsoft Word. I have been using Microsoft programs for projects in school since elementary school. Microsoft Word was typically the default program used when writing essays, projects, etc. Since coming to FSU, I have continued to use Microsoft word as well as Google Docs depending on the application. When doing group work, I typically use Google Docs because it is so easy to share. However for personal work and writing I usually use Microsoft Word. I also had to take a computer fluency class at FSU, which taught me how to use some tools and functions on Word that I didn't previously know about. Overall, I would say I prefer Microsoft Word because I know how to use it better than other programs.  The standard that was the most meaningful to me was the Leader standard. I liked this standard because I think being a leader is a very important aspect of being a teacher. Being able to empowe...

 In this class I am very excited to learn how I can use technology when working with kids. Whether that be in a teacher/classroom setting, as a babysitter, or as a mom, I am excited to learn how technology can aid in teaching kids. I think I will apply this knowledge both in my personal life and in my professional life. I plan on working with kids for speech therapy, and believe this class could help give me some unique teaching tools.  I don't have much prior experience with teaching with technology.

However, I have used technology such as smart boards when I was a student in middle and high school.  When it comes to learning, I am a Communication Sciences and Disorders major. I love to learn about communication disorders and t...

     So far, I do enjoy blogging. I think this could be a great tool when it comes to communicating with my students as well as their parents. I like how easy it is to send out a blog post, Blogger is super user friendly and straightforward for both the creator and the viewer. So far, I have learned how to upload images, post blogs with pictures/content, and change the theme of the blog for my viewers.     A Web 2.0 tool that I think is very helpful for educators is YouTube. I think YouTube is a very education tool when used correctly. It is a great place for teachers to collaborate and share their ideas for other teachers. I also think it is a great tool because it can be a place for students to collaborate and find inspiration. I remember often watching educational YouTube videos throughout high school to help me study/learn, and I would also use it to upload group projects and presentations.  YouTube      My initial experiences with genera...
