Blog Post #6

 1. My experience with blogging has been good. I like how it's so easy to post on Blogger. I wish there was a way to make it more colorful instead of just having a blank white paper. I have learned how to work this website. I think it is a lot like Google Docs and I used Docs all throughout high school so I have found it pretty easy to work with. 

2. A tool that I may use when teaching is Google Classroom. I used Google Classroom in middle school. It shows you all of your classes and it is easy to access for students. You are able to have a code for the classroom so only your students can join it. You can post assignments, and your students will be able to submit them through Google Classroom. When I grade assignments, I am able to see where all of them are instead of having assignments on paper and risk losing them. I really liked using Google Classroom in middle school. We used it the most when we were quarantined and had to do school from home.

3. I liked using the Generative AI. It worked for the first time for me. I just asked it to create a lesson plan for a specific grade, subject, and topic. It gave it right to me and was very detailed with lots of bullet points. I don't think it would have worked as well if I wasn't as specific as I was. Next time I would be more specific and see if it gives me more details. 

4. I envision using Generative AI in my teaching because I can ask it for ideas for activities or lesson plans. I envision myself teaching in a younger class, so I would need lots of ideas on how to decorate the classroom. I could ask AI for ways to include all of my students' names around the classroom or ways for name tags on their desks. I could ask for lesson plan ideas if I am stuck on the best way how to teach the students. To address ethical concerns, I would not let my students use AI, and I would only use it for ideas.

    Hi Audrey!! I love the layout of your blog! It is very clean and organized. I had never thought about asking AI for ways to decorate the classroom, I think that is a great idea! Like you, I also want to teach in an elementary setting, and I think making the classroom decor fun and engaging is super important. I think AI could be a great source to come up with ideas for example of different anchor charts that could be colorful and cute but also have key topics that students can refer to.

 1. While working on Assignment 5, I learned much about using PowerPoint. All in high school we used Google Slides and I had never used any Microsoft sites until college. I like how PowerPoint is organized and how it is easy to find everything. When using the action buttons it got a little confusing trying to hyperlink them to the right slides but I think I have them all figured out.  2. As a future 3rd-grade teacher, I anticipate using data collection tools like Google Forms or Qualtrics to gather insights into student learning, classroom engagement, and parental feedback. For example, I could use surveys to assess student understanding of math concepts after a unit or collect data on reading preferences to tailor literacy instruction. Additionally, parent surveys could help me understand their perspectives on their child's progress and classroom communication. These tools will enable me to make data-driven decisions that enhance my teaching strategies and better support my s...
