     Copyright and fair use is important as this is what protects your work and others work. This is important in the classroom because this covers the use of textbooks and website programs. When dealing with the copyright and fair use in the classroom the best course of action is to write your own lessons. This will help upkeep the law and will allow for you to not have to deal with purchasing programs. 

    Cyberbullying is big problem on the internet, and this can link into the classroom. In my future classroom, I will teach the students all about the dangers of cyberbullying and how to use the internet in a respectful way. I will also implement programs that will allow for me to see what a student is doing on a computer at school as this will allow for me to see if any unappealing behavior online. I will also create a safe space for students to come to me if they are being bullied online. 

    When it comes to implementing ChatGPT or other AI programs, I think that they do more harm than good. Most students use AI to write essays for them which can be hard for teachers to catch. This is not good as the students are not learning these writing skills that are necessary for everyday life. These AI can also answer homework questions which will take away the knowledge the student would be getting if they completed it. 

    The newspaper web designed helped me develop many new skills in word and Canva. I had little to no experience working with the program Canva. I learned how to make a backdrop and create my own images in Canva. I learned how to make a hyperlink in word and how to work with shapes in Word. In my future career, I plan on making newsletters for my future students and will use the skills I learned in Canva to help me create a backdrop for my own classroom.

    Hi, Kelsey! While creating original materials is an excellent way, it's also important to recognize the value of incorporating existing works under the fair use doctrine. Fair use can enrich your lessons by allowing you to use small portions of copyrighted works for educational purposes, criticism, commentary, or scholarship, adding depth and context to your instruction.
    You may also consider exploring Open Educational Resources (OERs). These are teaching, learning, and research materials in any medium that reside in the public domain or have been released under an open license that permits no-cost access, use, adaptation, and redistribution by others. OERs can be a valuable complement to your own materials, which can allow you to incorporate a wide range of resources without the concerns of copyright infringement.

    My experiences with Microsoft word began in sophomore year of high school. I had just begun dual enrollment and my first class was a note taking class. I had to use word to write essays and write notes throughout the course of the class. I also had to use word for my dual enrollment English classes during my senior year of high school. I have continued to use word at FSU in many of my classes. I prefer to use word rather than any other writing application as I am most familiar with it.      I believe that the collaborator standard of 2.4 is the most important to me. This standard is about communicating with colleagues, which helps teachers immensely. An example of this would be teacherspayteachers, from which many of my high school worksheets came from. This standard also allows encases 2.4.d which covers communication with parents. This is a very important thing in elementary education as teachers have parent teacher conferences often.     I agree with the label of digital native

         I began twirling at the age of three because my sister was a twirler. As a child, I wanted to be just like her as I saw her as my role model. I worked hard in twirling and made the middle school team my sixth-grade year. I tried out for high school, and it was the hardest tryouts that I had ever had at this point. I did not feel very confident in my abilities when I saw the upperclassman's skill level, however I made the team after putting in hours of work each day. I tried out for a college line my senior year with my best friend. We knew no one at these tryouts and we even had a different twirling style than the rest of the girls. We left the tryouts with our heads held high, until we got to the car where we expressed our true worry with how the tryouts went. After the tryouts, we had to wait days to hear if we had made it, but in the end we made the line.      My prior experiences using technology in an educational setting rely mostly on Microsoft word. I have used Canv

      My initial response to using Diigo was confusion. I began by trying to sign up for Diigo and none of my emails were being accepted. I downloaded the extension and it let me sign up for the application. I found bookmarking the websites easy but the original website I bookmarked would allow for annotations. As a result of this, I had to find a different article, but after finding this article it was very easy to work.          Blogging has been a new experience for me. I do not have many strong feelings about blogging. I find it more interesting than a discussion board would be, but I dislike that other people can see the blog posts. I like that it is set up like word but is different than I have learned how to add a copyright link and how to use a new website. I have learned how to comment on other people's work.     The web 2.0 tool that I will use in my future career as an educator will be livebinder. This application is similar to Padlet in which students submit their work
