Blog Journal 5 (Online)

Hi Blog!


    Working on the web design assignment was intensely satisfying. I loved the website that our class used to design our websites, as well as the ease of the UI for designing. I followed a few design principles, such as making sure that all of the assets within the website were properly spaced out (the map section on the home page with the times). I also wanted to make sure that all of the text on the site was legible so I made sure to always put dark text over a light background. This assignment helped me decide to implement a class website when I am a teacher. I really enjoy how easy the website is to edit, as well as the ability for parents and students to both be able to use it and access important class information at anytime. 
    One way that I could use QR codes in class is when using supplementary material. Typically when giving presentations, I will keep the text within the presentation to a minimum. However, sometimes there are materials that are useful but not at the center of the discussion. By including a QR to a source or supplementary materials, students would be able to quickly scan the QR if they are interested in more material, and the QR code does not take too much space away from the presentation.

Blog Journal 4 Online

Hi Blog,      I enjoy blogging! I sort of do it already on my own, but instead of online, I do it in a journal. I have always been a fan of free writing or prompt writing, so blogging or digital journaling has always been something that I have enjoyed. I have never used Blogger before, but because of our class's use of the website, it has quickly become a tool that I enjoy using. Though I can't say that it is more enjoyable than physically journaling with a pen and notebook. I love completely decorating every single crevice of my journals and notebooks with doodles and stickers, or things that I have found throughout my days. Although Blogger is very customizable, I cannot put my Blog in my hand and drop it in some mud, permanently staining it with a memory. Blogging or journaling is such a personal art, and whenever I want to be vulnerable and personal, I like to be as true to myself as possible.      My husband showed me a tool that I use for both educati...

" Hollywood Babylon II " by James Anthony  is licensed under  CC BY-NC-ND 2.0 Hello Blog!     I wanted to attend this class because I want to attain a Minor in Education. However, that is not the only reason that I want to take this class, after reading the syllabus it became clear to me that this class wasn't just going to be a boring Microsoft computer class, but a class that eventually will give me the skills to create assets through technology, how to manage my work (One Drive) and that technology can be fun! I hope to learn how to properly use Excel, or at least any other spread sheet creator. I have never been good at Excel or Google Sheets, but I know how useful of a program they both are for time management, class management, planning for travel, and so much I don't even know about!     Prior to this course my experience with technology within an educational setting has been less than optimal. Technology started becoming a part of my ever...
