Sixth Post

I envision myself to use Twitter in my future teacher career as a way to be a part of teacher circles and to follow education sites. Being a part of teacher circles on Twitter will be a way to help me be exposed to the many ways that teachers run their classrooms differently. Following education sites will keep me in the loop of the do's and don'ts of such things like classroom management or improving my students skills where they need improvement in. As far as a blog, I feel like this is a good way for teachers to share something new that they are trying in their classrooms for example new skill that the students are learning or even activities that are being used for students to attain the new skill. Blogs are another way for teachers to express themselves and connect with other teachers considering that they all have one thing in common and that's being an educator. Technology not only help us educate our students in the best way possible. It helps us connect with other teachers where we can learn from each other and pretty much keep improving the education system.

I'm always searching up things school work related on Google. As far as evaluating Internet-based resources I often check to see who or what created the resource and why it was created in the first place. I also often check for citations and what author(s) put their input into the resource that I'm using or just reading on. Teachers and parents can help children identify good resources from the Internet by teaching them how to look at how related is the resource to what they were searching for. I think that it's also important for students to learn how to know who was behind the resources that they were using or in simplest terms who wrote the resource(s) that is being used by then.

I really didn't acquire any new skills from the last assignment considering that searching on the Internet is pretty much something I do everyday. I really like how simple and short the Web Hunt assignment was there wasn't anything to not like about it because we were just required to search up answers which is like I said earlier something that I pretty much do everyday.
