 I have personally used MS Word for most of my educational life. I started using the software when i started middle school in 6th grade. We had classes to explain to the students everything about the software to prepare use for when we needed it in high school, but if we had any questions, our teacher wasn't well equipped to properly answer them. As my classmates and I reached high school, we had to rely on our teachers to give us specific instruction on what they were looking for and specific key terms that prepared me for college. Currently being a college student and using MS Word, I do prefer using that over any other software. I have only ever used MS Word and think i would be confused with where everything is if i changed to another software. 

When choosing a ISTE Standard for Educators, the standard that stands out to me the most is learner. As a learner, i am able to mainly learn from other when it comes to being educated on a new topic. I have learned that shifts in teaching and learning afforded by technology has the ability to show personalization, tools that are able to highlight uniqueness, being able to hear from other pears on how to grow academically and different analysis tools to excel. 

The definition of digital native is anyone born in the 20th century that has grown up around or using technology at a young age. i have seen a huge difference in how i use technology in comparison to how my teachers or parents use it. Since i have grown up depending on technology for my learning, it is easy to help my teachers figure out any technical issues when they get stuck in class. if a teacher isn't well versed in technology, it does tend to slow down my classmates and I as we have to help guide out instructor through there course. This issue happened frequently in high school as the staff was not educated properly before the new school year on the new software that they would have to be using. I think the difference between now and the future when it comes to technology is that both students and teachers will be fully dependent on technology. Now we have a mix of writing and typing or the occasional turn in of a physical printed assignment, where as in the future, we only will submit assignments or work online.

 By working on the Web Design, it has taught me a many important tasks that I was unaware of before. One of the main things that I have learned has been balance. When creating a layout that has both images and text, you want to make sure that everything is seamless and not to crowded. A good example is when i was able to set up my images before adding any text to make sure that there was enough room for the images and text on one page rather than writing all the text and adding pictures after and it looking muddled. This made my web design look more appealing and inviting to the readers. Another main tool that i learned and was able to use throughout my Web Design was contrast. For my Web Design, I had a lighter background with darker text and headers to ensure that it would be legible for readers to see the text clearly. Doing this not only made the text stand out but also made everything look professional. By using all of what i learned during the Web Design assignment, I can use...

Discussion Board #1

For this class, I hope that i will better understand digital communication tools and the impact that they have on education. Specifically, I am interested in acquiring new skills that will help me effectively use technological strategies that will help me in the future. With all that i have learned, I am looking forward to applying these new skills to future experiences weather that is for a class or potential job.  When it comes to my previous use of technology in an educational setting, I have used certain apps like power point, word, excel and other educational apps. For virtual learning, other apps like zoom, Microsoft teams and other digital outlets are very beneficial for me and other student's education. using these outlets has given me a basic foundation for technology but even with that, I feel there is so much more that I need to know.  in terms of my hobbies and new skills, I love to know every detail about what I'm doing. Recently, i have been very into learning th...

       My blogging experiences have been pretty fun with the topics presented for this class. So far, I have enjoyed being able to show my personal side with what we are doing in class that have been helpful like tools that we have learned which hopefully can benefit others if they are also struggling with technology. I also really like that the blogs itself don’t have to be formal like they are when using an MLA or APA format. The only downside that I’ve had with blogging is the site itself. Personally, I have always used word for any assignment that I’ve ever done, even if it is through another cite like canvas. What I have learned very early on in the semester is that if I type any work and complete the assignment in word, then try to copy and paste it into the blogging site, the words aren’t legible. This was a huge learning process and an adjustment but something so fixable on my end.       What is interesting about Web 2.0 tool when it comes...
