 Copyright and fair use is a big problem in today's society in the education system. As a teacher I think it would definitely be hard to walk this fine line. Personally, I think if I as a teacher am coming up with my one concepts and own lesson plans and my own thoughts, I would expect my students to be able to do the same thing. I would want my students to use what I provide for them and be able to form there own even deeper thoughts and expand on my thoughts. It is definitely a fine line but I think if there is anything to be learned, I would work with my students and help them to understand how to work the way I would like them too in a professional manner. 

Technology is also something has taken over the world. Technology is being implemented into every aspect of our academic lives and it can honestly become distracting. Whenever I have an assignment due and I am going to look at to on my phone or even on my laptop, I always seem to get distracted by a text or a funny video someone sent to me. I have noticed this personally in my own life and I try to write out what I need to do on paper and then do my work on my computer with Do Not Disturb turned on to limit distraction and promote work. In my future classroom I would like to dedicate time to getting online work done because I think this would improve work ethic on assignments. 

Generative AI is something I do not use. While this tool can be very useful for some projects, it is also used for very demeaning things as well. I personally do not think I would implement this into my classroom just because I do not use it and I do not like it. I definitely think this would hurt students learning as they would think they could fall back onto this a something to do their work for them. 

While working on my newsletter, I did lean a lot of new skills. Like I have stated earlier, technology is nit my strong suit. With this being an assignment I had to figure it out and all with the punches. I honestly am very thankful that I has to learn these new skills and will definitely be turning to canva to help me with other projects in the future.

    Hi Torri!
    I completely agree with you about technology and copyright within the classroom. I wrote a similar stance on my blog post. I think it is important to teach students about these things instead of ignoring them completely and risk the chance of students using AI and other tools as a way to cheat or turn in unoriginal work. I also am not a fan of AI, I find it scary more than anything else and I don't think I would use it in the classroom too much either.

    Torri,
    I agree with your stance on technology and copyright in the classroom, but I'd encourage students to help find websites ot host activites/schoolwork on. Especially when students are older, they know what they prefer in terms of technology in the classroom, and may have a greater insight to what's available than a teacher may. I agree that AI is more of a hinderance in the classroom than an aid.

Microsoft word has made such an impact on how I and a big majority of people have learned to organize their school, work, and or personal writings. Throughout my school years k-12 (mostly middle through high school) my schools wanted us to use google docs to do all of our assignments. I personally think that MS Word is much easier to use and allows for more creativity when it comes to fonts, colors, and anything else you could think of. While being at FSU I have had the opportunity to get a free membership with MS Word and it is much easier to use in my opinion and this is my preferred way of doing assignments and taking notes.  While the ISTE standards cover students, educators, education leaders, and coaches, today we will focus on educators. I believe the most important standard for educators to have is to be a leader in their classroom. This means that they should share with the class what their vision is and do their very best to put the best foot forwards for their students. ...

 This class has introduced me to the new resource of Diigo. I honestly do not have a clear cut decision made on if I like it or not yet just because I have not used it enough. It seems pretty easy use, I am just a little technologically challenged so any new website is difficult for me to navigate and get the hang of. I really like that whenever you go to post something there is a big blu plus sign, can't miss it. I also like how it allows you to react to comments and not just reply with a comment. I am not going to lie, I was not excited that we would have to post blogs in this class, but it has slowly become one of my favorite assignments to do. With blogging, I feel like I can truly just speak what's on my mind and not worry about if it "sounds smart enough", or if my teacher will like it. Blogging has helped me just write down my feeling on certain subjects and I am very thankful for that. I have learned that blogging is supposed to be a fun way to let other know ...

 Hello, My name is Tori Morris. I am a junior in college and plan on graduating next spring in 2025. I grew up in a family with a mother and father and one older brother who is two years older than me. I grew up being very close to my family and it has remained that way even though we have all grown and moved away from each other. I grew up playing sports, and involved in a lot of clubs throughout my k-12 life. These experiences made me realize that I am very interested in working with people when I have a full time job. I am currently pursuing a degree in Human Development and Family Sciences with  two seperate minors in Education and Biology. I do not know what I want to do with my life yet but I have th mentality that everything will fall into place when it is supposed to.  While I was going through the k-12 school system, this was a time when technology being integrated into to schools was a very big step for students. I want to say I was in about 7th grade when they ...
