      A skill that I learned through diigo is archiving snapshots of webpages.  Diigo is useful for collaboration and group activity.This can be used in the classroom to provide extended learning to students. Students can research important topics related to the curriculum and annotate for other students to view/comment.

   The next topic I will discuss is how will I use Bloom's Taxonomy in my powerpoint for student learning. The first level of the is knowledge. The topic that will be discuss is how to the conduct experiments and how to test them. The knowledge presented on the topic will be  use to inform students. The two levels is comprehension and application. In my powerpoint students will be quizzed at the end through trivia, or a game. The questions being asked will have real life applications for students to critical think of the best solution. The remaining of the levels which are analysis, synthesis, and evaluation will be represented when going over the results of the quiz and students will analyze their answers and compare it with others. Students will then evaluate and write what they've learn from the topic discussed.  

   One way for teachers to stay aware of the changes of professional development is using different resources such as  technology app.Such as an educational blog that updates/informs students  on the advances of technology and the whereabouts. Also other ways to be informed is by doing conferences or seminars for teachers to discuss latests updates within the school's curriculum. 

A site that I use to stay informed about technology trends is called EdTech RoundUP. This site posts weekly on latest educational technology and advances.

The school website that I viewed was 'Sierra Elementary School'. Comparing teacher's pages, I've noticed that they all have the same content. Some of the class pages that I'd viewed have very detailed page informing students about what's going on in the classroom. Some classroom pages have rules list, supplies list, etc.I've notice classroom pages would implement school policies and codes. Also parents and students can view photos from class achievements, field trips and school events. Classroom page I can envision myself using technology by using it for group activities and presentation. Even try to create a better tool for students to use inside and outside classroom setting. Using technology in the classroom help with time management, enforcing positive interaction and communication skills. My overall experience of the Technology Sandbox was interesting and very cool. For a small room it had so much technology and tools that are great for tea...

Diigo is a tool that helps bookmark pages from websites and can add notes, highlight and comment on other's annotated work. This tool is also a platform where viewers can see what is bookmark through a feed and can view other people's bookmarked pages too. One thing I like about Diigo is that it's an extension which is helpful  to gain access to when needing the tool. Also, the tool pops up automatically when viewing an article and PDFs. So far my experience with blogging has been pretty good. I am able to express myself more within my blogs about topics. I think the only chanelleg that I might face from time to time with blogging is trying to come up with the right words or even trying to write naturally at times.  A web tool that I can use for my teaching is a website called Dosomething.org. This is a website helps implement social change and awareness for students worldwide. Dosomething.org helps promote social responsibility to take action to causes that are hap...

ILP#2

For my ILP#2, I used a social networking app called Wabisabi. Still not sure how to properly pronounce it but this app is very similar to facebook. This site is a platform for educators to share ideas, standards, and make global connections with other educators. Students and learners are able to access teacher's classrooms virtually and access information regarding the class. Voice thread.
