      Adaptive technologies can be used to help students with disabilities learn better. Examples include recorded books, high-interest low-vocabulary books and scan/read systems. I have used recorded books in the past to help me read, not because I have a disability but because sometimes it is easier to listen to someone else read. I think this ay be a challenge in the classroom because if students realize these technologies are easier than the alternative, they may start to only use these technologies and forget about the original ways to learn. 
        You can use PowerPoint to support Bloom's Taxonomy by using every slide to portray a different level of each stage of the pyramid. This will give children a chance to learn while seeing it on different slides.

An ELA technology standard I am most prepared to teach with is using different sources to cite work. I have experience, especially in high school, with using multiple sources to find information. I think this will be easy to teach students as well. I think the hardest standard to follow would be analyzing the structure the author uses to organize a text. Analyzing text structures is not my strong suit and I feel like I would need to take more  english classes to get better at it.  I think I would like to use Internet, email and Microsoft word mostly with my students. I think these are the 3 most common and useful applications. I would like to teach 2nd or 3rd grade and I think this is an appropriate age group for these applications.  I think a newsletter is an effective way to get information out to parents ad students. I think I acquired a lot of helpful skills that i will need later on to be a teacher. I liked how I got to be creative but I did...

  There are many things that influence the use of technology in the classroom by teachers and students. I think the main influence is collaboration with everyone involved in the learning facility including teachers, parents and students. Technology allows you to collaborate virtually and in-person to get a better understanding of the material and share your thoughts with your peers. The ISTE standards are standards that educators and students have to use to meet specific goals. One that caught my eye was the P12 standard. This helps children acquire knowledge for future success by integrating technology in the classroom. One that seems outside of my personal reach is the common core standard. I believe every student learns differently and reflects what they learn differently which is why this standard is hard for me to soak in. I think a common core tries to make every student learn the same when every child and even educators learn differently.  I would agree with the ter...

    The flipped classroom is where you combine traditional learning strategies with new ones such as new technology or online content. This could be using regular classroom technologies but then adding new ones on top of it so everyone can learn differently. You can make one part of your lesson online while one is traditional.  https://youtu.be/ojiebVw8O0g I acquired many new skills working with the power point projects. I learned how to use slide master which I did not know how to use before. I was ab;e to create a new layout and insert it into my own project. I also learned how to enter my voice into slides which I never knew how to do before. I am do glad I learned these new skills because I can use them when I am a teacher.
