 Canopy Oaks Elementary School

I used this website. I looked at school websites from my hometown but none of them had teacher pages. They had a faculty and staff page but it was just a list of all the teachers and admin. In my hometown, I don't think they do teacher pages anymore. I know parents (elementary school) can download an app to chat with their child's teacher. I think it's just safer that way in this day and age. 

Anyway, after looking through this site and a few teacher pages, the information I saw was tutorials, where you can find and submit assignments. Also some resources for school subjects. (Math, science, etc.) 



I didn't mind working on assignment 2. My group was great and we finished the assignment three days early. Group projects are scary especially in an online class because some people don't do the work! Sometimes they even use AI to do everything or them. Using Canvas Group was great. I had no trouble at all and wouldn't mind using that again in the future.

The professional development resource I chose was a TedTalk about teaching. The speaker,  Gregory Chahrozian, explains how it's not what you teach. It's about how you teach it.    https://tinyurl.com/TedTeaches

 What I hope to learn in this class is how to accurately evaluate digital data. I want to be able to look at digital data and realize if it's trustworthy or not. How I will apply this in the future by using it when applying for jobs, reading news, and incorporating it into my daily life. With all this AI now, It can be kind of tricky knowing what's accurate and what's not.  My prior experiences of using technology in an educational setting come entirely from being on the side of the student. I don't have experience yet of using technology as a teacher. Using technology in an educational setting has gone great. The only downside is a lot of pop-ups and ads. Everything has been easy to find and use to research, do homework, etc.  Existing personal learning networks would be YouTube, Instagram, Linkedin, etc. Mainly digital media platforms. I like to learn about politics, music, pop culture, editing, and all kinds of stuff. I've been wanting to learn guitar and when I ...

How I would deal with these concepts as a teacher is by making a fun powerpoint and interactive example. An example could be half the students creating their drawings and the other half copying the drawings. Half of the students drawing would again be split into half. Half trademarking their drawing and the others not. I would then explain why this is wrong with the powerpoint and how it's important to remain authentic. I haven't learned anything new but I do think sometimes it's hard to tell the difference if it's not directly stated.  The technology issue I selected is academic dishonesty. A solution I have is to have the kids recite an oath about how it's bad and how they won't do it. Maybe sign a contract instead. I think this depends on the grade. I would also reiterate every month how it's bad and it's important to maintain academic integrity. Oh, also by telling them the serious consequences if they do academic dishonesty.  I think generative AI i...
