Blog Journal 6

  •  When I first used Diigo for the first time I thought it was kind of cool. I understand that it helps teachers by allowing them to edit webpages by making screenshots that they can use in order to better instruct students on what to do on a new website. It can also be used out of the classroom for other instructional purposes. I like its comfort of use for me and that's the most valuable thing when using a new tool for the first time. It wasn't hard to use and I find it necessary in my other projects. 
  •  I like that I can post whatever that comes to my mind in my blogs where people can read it and share it. Blogging can also get you in trouble as we all have seen over the years so it is important to be considerate when you post what you say. I don't like that you can really be traced from websites when you blog because when you sign in the website logs all that information in case someone wants to find out who posted something. I learned in the blogging process to check your grammar in case someone does not understand what you said and it could be comfortable to understand. 
  • A device that people can use for teaching that is helpful is the website pdfdrive.com. Pdfdrive is a pdf tool website that has just about every book for everyone to access in case they cannot afford to buy the book online or they just want to save money. I prefer it because I download books all the time and it also has scholarly books that are used in classrooms. Since COVID closed most of the schools, many children can use this as a digital library if they want to read and not have to return the books that they download. Pdfdrive.com

  Blog Journal 9       As a distance learner, I liked not having to be on the physical campus in order to obtain my degree. As college student, we have to work and get our education and unfortunately for some, that means having to choose one over the other. What I didn't like for some of my classes was that some teachers felt lonely not being in the environmental classroom and I don't understand why they would feel lonely. It caused them to appear sensitive when talking to them since most of them weren't social outside their lives as professors. When I become a teacher, I would like to not have the classes on zoom and instead just the assignments and have the students call me over the phone whenever they need help. It allows for a more structured learning environment when the goal is anyways to turn in assignments. It cuts out the need to lecture.  Open educational resources are open resources that are available free on the web for the use of learning. Thes...
