The school website I chose was the Meridian 223 School District. This is where I went to school growing up, so I felt like I could connect to this site more than any other. Many of the links on the home page consisted of local events like the spring musical. The website included information on student registration as well as a calendar of all events for students in the district for all age groups.

I envision myself using technology to send emails, project class assignments and send out newsletters. I would like to not include a lot of technology in my classroom for students because of the distraction that it poses. However, sending emails to my superior or colleagues is important to share how my classroom completes and responds to tasks. I would like to continue to use Canva because of the creative aspects as well as how professional the outcome of the products are. 

I really enjoyed Assignment 1. It was very difficult trying to create a lesson plan, but being creative on how I organized the newsletter was something I enjoyed. I found Canvas very difficult to navigate and operate. I disliked the ability to collaborate. If two people are working in the same page, if one of them saves their progress, the other loses all of their information.

       I am a Florida State Student from a small town outside of Chicago, IL. I am Literature, Media, and Culture major, and I am a senior, graduating in the Fall of 2024. Living in Florida for the past three years has been a rollercoaster. I spent my freshman year at FSU - Panama City, and as my first exposure to the south, it was definitely a culture shock.      In high school, I was apart of the Future Business Leaders of America, and there I was exposed to a lot of technology. I helped create websites as well as operate numerous programs and robots. I took a web design class where I code an entire website from scratch. My sophomore year at FSU, I took a web programming and design class, where I worked with numerous coding software.     The primary learning network that I use is the Canvas app. It notifies me when I have assignments due, as well as gives me access to my grades and coursework at anytime. Offline, I tend to go to a lot of cafes and libraries to complete assignments. I

While working on the Web Design Assignment, I learned how to create a website and personalize it. I also learned how to utilize Google Calendars as well as how to insert it into a website. I enjoyed being able to create a lesson plan that involved literature that is beneficial to students as well as literature that I am passionate about. I may want to incorporate these skills in the future by creating a website lesson plan for students and parents to keep track of assignments and announcements.  My Website I do not know much about AI. I do not use it in my day to day life. Seeing how AI is impacting the writing field as well as the film and education fields prevents me from using it. By relying on AI, it discourages students and adults do not use their imagination. By discouraging children to use their imagination, their brains will not fully develop and they expect every answer given to them. They may not learn how to be creative and provide their own ideas. I avoid ChatGPT at all cos

EME 2040 has definitely been a positive experience for me. Creating lesson plans and researching teacher methods has made me reconsider what I would like to do with my career as well as assist me in receiving an education minor. I really like the class activities. They allow you to be creative while still being professional. That being said, I do feel like the assignments can be a lot to grasp, I am finding difficulty trying to gain knowledge about a certain platform to complete the assignment. I also find the creation of lesson plans difficult. I wish we had a template of what a lesson plan looks like so I can get a grasp as to what I need to include for my students. Open Educational Resources (OER) are resources available for teachers and students to use. They are usually covered under a license that allows free use of the resource. One of the blogs I found was an article describing how to teach students about climate change. They focused on the positive aspects of what assisting wit
