Blog #8 (Floating around waiting for the right current)

How do you define one’s Digital Footprint in your own words? 

From my own point of view, digital footprints are when you use the Internet, you leave a mark that people can track or find out what kind of person you are in terms of the work you do. A person needs to understand that whatever they do on the net will stay forever. You must be careful in what you do because it will reflect on you. This is very important because it can ruin your name or make you popular. Either way, the digital footprint can be good or bad depending on what is posted or what you do on the internet.


Is this an important topic to teach your students? Why or why not? 
I think this is an important topic to be discussed because students nowadays are posting things that are either good or bad, and they don't think about the consequences of their actions. For example, students from PICS High School used to video-fighting between students and post it on the net, thinking that they were doing it for fun, but they did not understand that it was ruining the school's name and reputation. Even though they have already taken it down from the net, it is too late; millions of people have already shared it around. We need to teach the students the advantages and disadvantages of their actions and let them know that digital Footprints have good and bad sides to them.


How do you plan to address this?
I plan to talk to my students about this and tell them the advantages and disadvantages of Digital Footprints. I will talk to them about what is going on, like what Dr. L-jay did. I will try to search for ways to help them understand that if you are using it for good reason then it is good but if you use it for a bad reason then it will not be good for you in the future. I will also remind them that they do not have to really give all their information because someone can get it and create false identities about them. They have to be careful when giving personal information.

Blog #2 Following the current 2

  Select and describe two of the collaboration tools presented in class: The two collaborative tools that I like are Google Forms and Google Sheets. Google Forms can help me create classwork, tests, and quizzes for my students because our textbooks do not include teacher guides or student workbooks. I can create a simple and easy-to-use tool for my class or students. For Google Sheets, I can create worksheets to use for my Master's Grade Sheet (MGS ) when it comes to grading at the end of the quarter, and I can also help my colleagues with the Google sheet for their grades. Share 2 benefits of using the tool in your current role or job: One benefit of using these two tools it will make my work easier and faster. This will also help people who will teach my subject to have a smooth teaching because all the resources will be provided and ready to use. Another benefit that I see is that it will make learning for the students easier and smoother, and will make creating lesson plans...

Blog #5 (current flowing close to land)

Here are the two videos https://youtu.be/MBYlRmUurJ8 I learned how to make students come to school by following the CRSSP (Choice, Relevance, Strength, Specific, and Passion). If you follow the CRSSP, it will make students motivated and willing to learn. Watching the movie gives me an idea of how to make my students come to school every day and be willing to learn. If a teacher follows the CRSSP with the passion to make students succeed, then it will make learning fun and enjoyable   https://youtu.be/UCFg9bcW7Bk For this movie, it is almost the same as the first, but they have different ideas. This has to do with the 6 C's (Choice, Collaboration, Communication, Critical thinking, Creativity, and Caring). If you follow the 6 C's, it will make your classroom a wonderful and successful classroom, and students will be willing and motivated to learn. By watching this video, I think that I can apply some of his methods of teaching in my class. And his ideas are really great for a cla...

Blog #7 (Smooth current)

    List your 3 biggest takeaways from the readings.        First , learning styles if we study the learning styles, it will make learning fun and engaging. I found out that different people learn differently according to the movie visual, Auditory, reading, and writing, and Kinesthetic (VARK) it can help people find out what type of learners they are, and then we can work from that. I also found out that students have a dominant modality, but some prefer other modalities when they learn. This is an important lesson for us teachers, so we can try to understand our students and try to meet their needs.      The second takeaway is using the three phases of the learning process, which are before training, where you activate prior knowledge, or something similar to the first phase. The first phase has to do with reminding the person of the skill they learned before. For example, if you are teaching them how to plant seeds, you will try to remind...
