 I chose Quizlet from Mr.Wang's files specifically in the more tools for teaching Docx under assessments. I really enjoy this tool because many teachers growing up would have me and my peers make lots of documents with it. I have found it to be a super easy yet effective tool for studying. Quizlet offers many great amenities such as fill in the blank, flashcards, visual study, easy review, promote collaboration and teamwork, lastly, it is an alternative way for studying. Students can make their own Quizlets along with sharing with others or even have the option to find one that is already made about their subject topic. Ease of Use Quizlet is a very efficient tool when talking about ease of use, it simply gives you options of what you want to pick for each card. These examples are can be either flashcards or fill-in-the-blank in which you simply type out the question and answer. From there you can continue to make the whole quiz, test, or review no matter the number of questions. A...

 The next tool I wanted to use was Microsoft teams from the T3PP Technologies for Resources Blogging Powerpoint. I wanted to use this tool because this is something new to me that my placement school occasionally uses. A few of the teachers are really high on it and have discussed how easy it makes their life.  Microsoft Teams is a great app for group collaboration, organization, real-time communications. This app does a great job of being very accessible to everyone involved.  Microsoft teams has options for emojis, group chats, even language options. The accessibility is very open to anyone you share with inside your team while also having a calendar option to mark important meetings or dates. The following link is a great tutorial  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6IUiamE3-U Ease of Use Microsoft teams give you a wide range of platforms on which one can access for example there are mobile options for both iPhone and Android, app options on the computer, or any des...

 I chose to use Youtube from Mr.Wang's files specifically in communication tools Docx. Youtube is a tool I believe this generation is very familiar with because many of my kindergarten students use it every day. I think Youtube could be very beneficial in many classes from both instructional videos to creating group presentations.   Youtube is a tool that can be used to group or organize videos together, watch or follow or certain channel which allows for liking and commenting. This tool also allows for creations so a teacher could be capable of creating lessons and uploading them for students to see. I think because this tool is so common it allows for very easy interactions as well as connections between teachers and students.  Here is a like that shows how to use Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0eM1_JVqHE Ease of Use Youtube has a very efficient ease of use ranging from the simplicity of finding videos, sharing links, finding resourceful information.

 I chose Slatebox from Mr.Wang's files specifically in learning-information processing Docx. I chose this specific piece of technology because it seemed like a very efficient tool that could be used both amongst staff members and student to teacher. I think having a tool that accompanies both parties in an effective manner makes it easier for the school to be on the same page. Slatebox is a great tool for these four major categories the first being real-time sharing. Which is instant response time amongst the group, multi cursor canvas options, and tons of customization options. The next piece of the four major categories is called all the Use Cases. This means collaborative Kanban, daily stand-ups, mind maps, as well as a wide variety of templates to choose from. The third category is the no manual or instructions needed. This tool has easily guided direction that makes it very simple to create from. The last category is growing themes and templates Slatebox is always creating exc...

  The third tool I selected to use was from Mr. Wang's PPT about P3TT is PowerPoint. I feel as if this tool has been around forever and that most people are very confident when using it because many teachers have asked students to create PowerPoints for various projects. Powerpoint is a presentation platform where you can use slides of text, images, and videos to show information. This tool also allows for fun animations as well as transitions in between various slides to keep it interesting. The whole concept of PowerPoint is a quite simple tool thus being why I would use it in a future classroom setting. Teachers prefer this tool for students it gives very easy step-by-step directions. Its versatility could improve because it isn't as interactive but like I said above it does have text, images, and video options. I think this tool connects well with T-1 through T-3 by planning lessons, assessing the information, and finally instructing why it is important. This tool aligns wi...

For this blog entry, I would like to highlight a tool of my own that I have found very interesting in addition to being a great resource for educational development. Mentimeter to me is a very effective tool in terms of being an interactive presentation, enabling every student's voice to be heard, and allowing for class checkups. By this I mean you can do short quizzes, it also has different language options, along with all that this presentation platform has more options than most. This tool is extremely versatile in the way you use it, I would have quizzes or small tests through it in addition to just everyday powerpoints. I think this resource could become a staple point of my future classroom as long as I put in the time to get comfortable with the tool. I believe Mentimeter connects with Webb's depth of knowledge in a variety of ways such as applying, understanding, comprehension, evaluating, and analyzing all sorts of information. SAMR's connection to Mentimeter is th...
