Teacher pages on a school website served as brochures. The pages present the information in a way that interests and encourages others to join. The example I used was the school of communication. It’s no wonder that the information is good at trying to recruit new people.

I envision myself using technology to accomplish my professional responsibilities more efficiently and effectively by making sure all my students understand the information. If the child is unaware of how to use the technology it will ultimately be a waste. The specific teacher productivity tools I will use include google mostly. Google is by far the best tool to be used because it opens up a realm to so many other easy-to-use tools. 

My experience with working in the wiki platform (PB Works) was difficult. I didn’t enjoy it because the layout of the site seemed old and hard to navigate. I found myself having to teach myself certain functions because I wasn’t accustomed to the layout of things. I don’t see myself using this software with my future k-12 students because this would definitely be too difficult for 4th graders to comprehend or use.

Who is Tee?

 Hello, my name is La'shay King but I go by Tee. I attend Florida State University with the major of Social Work and the minor of Psychology. I want to be in the position to help people the correct way and I feel that Social Work will help me do just that. I enjoy hanging out with friends but I know that school always comes first.  My prior experience with technology in an educational setting has been great. I took a computer skills class in high school and I feel that it helped me tremendously. I was able to get my certification in Microsoft, Excell and Word for 2012 I believe. It was one of my most important classes because all my other classes involved some sort of technology and I was able to breeze through that work as well. I absolutely love google. Without google, I have no idea where I would be in my academic career. Google has been my teacher for quite some time and it has been the best thus far. Google has a wide range of information that it is able to present to me at an

  My initial thought and experience with using Diigo was “I hope this is easy to navigate so that I can pass.” I was happy to see that it was and was actually a nice resource. The only aspect that I disliked was  My experience with blogging was nice. I mentioned that at the beginning of class I’ve always wanted to start blogging my life. Blogging allowed me to keep an exact track of information, dates and much more. During the blogging process I’ve learned to enjoy being organized and in order.  An interesting Web 2.0 tool that I would consider using as a teaching tool would be YouTube. For me youtube would make things so much easier. Students could get the videos perspective at their own pace and then gather their own. This would allow for elaboration which I believe is most important in the classroom.

For me, I definitely use Twitter the least of all my social media platforms. I was using it as a means of contacting friends who also use it. I felt for a while that Twitter was just a waste of space so I just deleted the app completely. Since re-downloading the app I have found a purpose for the app. I am happy that I can now use it for a more professional means of communication with others.  The digital divide affects student success in schools by favouring those with access and placing those without access at a disadvantage. The digital divide is caused by some students having what others lack. I know that with being a teacher there will be many students and each will be different in their own way. I also have to expect the difference some of their at-home circumstances will vary. In the video the recommendation was made for teachers to dedicate a portion of class time to developing the student's technological abilities, this is what I would do to narrow the division.  Two softw
