Hope's EME 2040

I learned a lot with this assignment. I still don't think I am very good at using PowerPoint, but I am getting better. I am becoming more familiar with the menu bars and how to insert pictures, slides, and alt text. I had to use one of my tokens on this assignment because the switching between pages were really confusing me. I got it, but it took a lot of time. I understand that this assignment was for PowerPoint literacy, but I struggled too much with coming up with new ideas and facts to add. I like being creative, but trying to come up with a whole Jeopardy game about any random topic was difficult. If there was a subject area or instruction given about what to do a Jeopardy about I think I would have been able to focus more on the PowerPoint skills than the information provided.  I appreciated how in this class we did a survey in the middle of the semester to reflect on what we liked and disliked about the class. I feel as teachers we expect our students to always try their bes...

     I only ever experienced distance learning during COVID. During COVID, Zoom just started emerging as a distance learning technology and we used it every day. We also used Canvas and Google suite as our main communication and assignment platforms. I had a friend use Mural in one of her classes and it seemed really interesting. It is kind of similar to one of the platforms we have used in this class, but more controlled. It uses the same collaborative sticky notes, but you can organize and limit students' tools.       OER resources are educational resources that reside under public domain. So, anyone can use these resources for free. The resource that I linked below is a distance learning tool for learning sentence structure. It includes online resources for students to be engaged. It linked songs, kahoots, and worksheets for the students to complete their assignments. This would be a great resource to use in the classroom to make sentence structure ...

 1. I think I aquired a lot of new skills from working on the Web Design assignment. I think I am getting better at creating my Creative Commons Licenses for my work. I have gotten to the point where I know what I want to share and what I don't. I also think I caught on pretty quickly to linking external pages and my accounts to the website. I had always wondered how people did that, but now I know. I have also never been one to use Google Calendar, but being able to make the events show up in the shared, public Google Calendar was really easy. I think that would be a great tool in the classroom. The thing that I disliked about this assignemtn was Weebly. The site crashed while I was working on the assignment and deleted my work. It kept saying loading for 2 hours and when I refreshed my computer, all of my work was gone. I was able to redo my work, but it was a little frustrating. I can definitely see myself using a website or something similar with my future class, but maybe thro...
