While I was already generally familiar with copyright, I don't believe I realized that right when a work is created, the creator immediately holds copyright on it. I thought there was to be some sort of process that gave them a "law" to claim it as their own. While developing my own material, I would be sure never to copy and paste anyone else's original work. If there was an idea that I liked, I would borrow a concept, but never a full plan for class or a full instructional material.

Because AI and other platforms are so easily accessible, academic dishonesty is one thing that has spiked in classroom settings. In classes, I have been taught ways to use generative AI and other resources to aid my work rather than completely write it for me. As a teacher, I would provide the same to my students. I would work with students to teach them proper ways of utilizing others' work, but would incredibly discourage improper use of such platforms.

  Assignment 5 really tested how much I can use Powerpoint. I've never been good at it, but I'm excited because I think I learned a lot! I definitely learned how to link slides to one another, along with editing fonts and placement on the slides. I think what I could improve next time is to make the slides aesthetically look more entertaining! I think as I'm teaching, I could use data collection tools for various ways. I think student feedback could be a great use of something like Qualtrics. I'd send a smiple survey to students to see how they felt about a lesson or how they feel they're doing in class. I think it could also work for end-of-unit or project reflection to imrpove future instruction or lesson plan.  I think focusing on how to fully use Canva would be very beneficial. Specific: I want to use Canva for classroom visuals and parent newsletters. Measurable: I'd learn to create around 3 different types of classroom visuals in about three weeks. Achieva...

 Distance learning made up most of my 8th and 9th-grade years. I have experienced many different technologies, including Zoom, Google Classroom, Canvas, and more. I think that Zoom meetings were very efficient and a good addition to the world of learning. I haven't worked a lot with Padlet other than this class, but I think it's a great platform that I'd like to learn more about and use more often. Open Educational Resources (OER) are resources for learning that anyone can use, generally online. The "open" part is that the resources' property rights are free of charge. An example of an OER is Khan Academy. It is a free resource that offers lesson planning, and content to share in classrooms, and can make or remix the lessons taught.  Khan Academy I learned a lot of new skills working on Assignment 4. I first learned a lot about how to use PowerPoint, as I generally don't choose that as my resource to use when creating. I also learned about transitions on P...

     My experience with blogging has been a positive one. I've enjoyed being able to reflect on our weekly activities and expand my thoughts on what we have talked about in class. I have learned a lot about my own thinking, but also about others, especially when we read each other's blogs and leave comments. Overall, I think it has been a great tool to do some reflection and deeper understanding.     My experience with Generative AI has been a useful and easy one. I've used it to ask random questions, but more specifically for this class, working with lesson plans. The more specific I was when asking questions about what I wanted, the more accurate the generative source was. I think next time I use it, I will definitely immediately ask very specific questions about what I may want.      Generative AI could be very beneficial in teaching practices. I think I would definitely use it for lesson plans or generative images for the classroom. I think it...
