I have both good and poor experiences with EME2040. I liked how this class introduced me to different tools and sites that I previously had no clue that they existed. I didn't like how this class used things from Microsoft at times, as they always seemed to give me trouble for no good reason, and I don't like how this class is structured in a way as if it is expecting me to be a teacher in my future career.

If anything, I would probably use them when in relation to how certain written works of mine are received by others, since I'm going to be in the creative writing field after all. I could probably keep a list of how well certain books of mine do well with my audience. One other thing can be or have a survey of how well I implement certain elements into my stories. I think one technology-related skill I would like to learn next would be cybersecurity. I woul...

When I began using social media for Personal Learning Networks, I had started with Instagram. On Instagram, I interacted with #teachertalk, leaving a comment on one of their posts. I found it beneficial as it gives great advice of keeping calm and choosing which battles to fight with students, showing the importance of having responsibility and maturity when teaching students. If was were to use either Instagram or Twitter in the future, it would most likely to be advertise and completed written works of mine. Digital divide affects student success in school as they tend to have lower academic performances and they tend to have less access to information to further their studies. What is probably one of the main causes of digital divide is the inaccessibility technology can be for low income families. Some ways that this could affect certain teaching strategies that I use when teaching kids, as some students may fall behind during certain lessons if they aren't familiar with techn...
