     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 to it to be reviewed by the teacher. The difference is that students can make the live binder private and only accessible via a code that is shared with the teacher. This prohibits random people from seeing their work. I find the website to be very reliable as it allows for work done on paper to be scanned in. The link to this website is LiveBinders.

    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
