  • A paragraph about the ELA technology standards. Select a grade level from the Standards and Technology Matrices for ELA.  Choose one of the standards listed and describe it in your own words. Do you feel prepared to implement this standard based on your current skill set?  Why or why not?

    • I chose 9-12th grade for the ELA technology standards, the standard I chose was LAFS.1112.RI.3.7. This standard essentially said that it wants students to analyze and integrate different sources of information in different forms of media (paintings, articles, speeches, etc.) to solve a problem or answer a question. I believe that I can implement this standard just fine. History is luckily one of the few subjects that actually have to analyze different media sources as it can be found recorded on practically anything. 

  • A paragraph about one of the resources or tools in the CPALMS Educator Toolkit. To access the Educator Toolkit, select "I am a Florida Teacher" on the CPALMS home page. Scroll down to the "Grade Level Toolkits" section and select a grade level. Then, select a subject area. You will find various resources and tools by subject area. Select one of the standards and see the related resources (e.g., Lesson Plans, Text Resources, Original Student Tutorial). How do you think the resources can be used in your teaching? Note: Some items require a log-in to view the entire tool/resource. If you come across one of these items, you can find the information you need from the "Resource Information" page. You do not need to create an account. 

    • The CPALMS website has an amazing assortment of different resources and materials for teachers to use in their lessons. While it is moderately challenging for me to actually look at these resources, the few I did see were very useful. I liked the quality of the quizzes provided (most online history quizzes are not great), I also liked the vast amount of websites that teachers and students alike can get information from. Overall I did enjoy the quality and the amount of resources I had seen however I wish it was slightly easier for non-teachers to access them. 

  • A paragraph about Internet searching. Why is it important to be a proficient Internet searcher as a teacher? Of the Internet searching skills that were introduced this week, which skill or skills do you think you will use most moving forward? Is there an Internet searching skill you use that was not introduced in the course material this week? If so, please tell us about it.

    • Internet searching is now apart of our everyday lives, we use it for addresses, life questions or even something as simple as the weather. It is always important to be a proficient internet searcher but it is even more important as a teachers. Teachers do not have much time in their day and are on a very tight schedule. Advanced searching is definitely the way to go, this allows us to get the specific answers we need and avoid the useless information.

 https://mspuigeme2024.weebly.com/ A paragraph about your daily use of AI tools. Do you use AI tools? How do you use them? If you don't, why not? Are you motivated to use AI? Do you have any questions about the AI tools? I use AI in the workplace daily, I won't go much into Chat GPT as we will talk about it in the next section. Two AI tools I use frequently are Canva and Supermeme.ai these help me in my work and personal life. Canva is great to create flyers and even videos for my job as it provides me with many different templates. Supermeme.ai allows me to create memes for my coworkers and my friends recreationally.  A paragraph about your experience in using ChatGPT.  Describe your experience practicing using it (you can copy and paste your prompts and results). What did you learn about AI chatbots?   How has your perception of AI maintained or changed after reading the materials in this week's AI module? How might you address the potential risks or challenges regarding

                Hello everyone, my name is Kristina Puig. I am a 3rd year student at FSU currently pursuing a degree in History with a minor in Education. I enjoy baking, cooking, fish-keeping, and playing many different types of video games. My favorite animals are cats (you can see my cat in a picture below) and fun fact they are not all that different genetically from tigers!               Technology has been around in my classroom for a long time, I went from very simple AR computers to full blown laptops throughout my education. I have used many different programs such as all of the office programs and their google counterparts. Technology has been a big part of the classroom whether it was for writing papers, taking tests, or even just researching different sources. Technology can be a very helpful tool in education that has allowed me and my classmates to do our work anywhere at anytime as well as having all the access to whatever resources we might need however sometimes I miss

  A paragraph about your experience using MS Word as a student (both in K-12 and at FSU). Do you prefer another word processing software (e.g., Google Docs or Pages)? If so, why do you prefer to use this word processing software? Microsoft Word has been a big part of my time as a student, I have been using MS Word since middle school and it has been very helpful. However, in highschool i started to use Google Docs and in my opinion this program is much better in both functionality and shareability. Google docs can be used on almost any device and can be updated from anywhere with real time updates without any extra steps. This program also makes it much easier to share a document with group members or teachers (you can even convert it into a MS Word document). While MS Word might have more niche features, Google Docs is still much better for the average student.  A paragraph about the ISTE Standards for Educators Select the standard that is most meaningful to you. Have you learned any
