 As a future teacher I plan on using data collection tools such as surveys and quizzes to be able to collect data from not only my students but parents on a subject. Surveys will allow me to ask questions in multiple choice questions as well as short answers to my students and parents of the students on a topic to get their opinions. As a First grade teacher, some survey questions I may ask could be, "Out of the three educational games we played this week, which of the three did you like and learn the most from?", "Was the homework load for your child this week, too much for them to handle this week or were they comfortable?", even " What did you like and silk from this class? What could I do to better my teaching for the next students?". These questions are opinionated questions depending on the student and parent filling them out. Surveys allow me to gain more opinions and accumulate them all at the end for the best results/ Quizzes differ in the fact th...

 Distance Learning was introduced to me at a very young age, but was not completely understood or used until now. When I was in middle school and high school, distance learning was used in school and out. My parents introduced me to KhanAcademy and other websites they would have to a lesson each weekend to get ahead.

 In Assignment 3, where we were to create a web design what I thought was going to be very difficult ended up being something somewhat easy and simple to do and follow. I went in thinking I needed to be some computer software engineer but I was proven wrong. I learned how to create a web page with multiple files and pages, implement and common license, as well as format the themes on each page. It combined all that we have been learning up to this point in a website page form. There wasn't much that I disliked about the Assignment, only with the exception of trying to format and create columns and sections to make the page pleasing to the eye. I couldn't figure out how to create section boxes on a page. Overall, I think it was an easier to follow and do assignment than what I was expecting.  My Website Diigo after having been using it for a couple assignments now, has become easier and more familiar to me. to use. Diigo is a great source to create groups within your class or f...
