Blog post #6



I have really enjoyed the blogging experience. I like the concept of being able to share my opinions and experiences for others to learn from them. I have also enjoyed the process of decorating my blog. However, one thing that I have not been loving is the website Blogger. There are not as many resources for decorating my blogs as I would like to,  but it is a good option for getting started.  During this process, I have learned that having a blog is a great way to express what we know about our topics of interest, and by sharing these ideas, we can find others who have similar interests.
I had never considered how practical generative AI can be for teachers. I was surprised to see that Chat GPT can create worksheets in a format ready to download and print out. In order to get a properly detailed lesson plan, I went back and forth with the chat multiple times to add my feedback and specify what type of information I wanted the chat to add. I noticed that by using this strategy, it was easier to get a lesson plan generated that was tailored to my preferences, compared to if I had just written one prompt. This strategy was so effective that I would definitely apply it the next time I use this AI tool.
Generative AI can be used in multiple ways to help teachers. As a teacher, I would use AI to create functional learning plans that address my students’ needs. In addition, I would teach my students how to ethically use AI. For example, by teaching them how to use AI tools to brainstorm or as grammar check tools. In addition, the best way to address the ethical concerns is to build trusting relationships with my students and to make sure they understand that multiple tools can properly detect when AI is being used for the wrong purposes.

       Hello everyone, my name is Adriana , and I'm a senior at Florida State University. I'm pursuing a major in psychology and a minor in education to become a neuropsychologist in the future . I was raised in the Republic of Panama , so Spanish is my first language, but a year ago, I moved to the U.S. to finish my bachelor's degree.  As part of my minor, I'm currently taking the course Introduction to Educational Technology.  During this course I hope to learn how to use online tools I've never used before , such as Padlet and Blogger. I'm also looking forward to refining my skills using Microsoft Word and PowerPoint, as I have only used their basic features. Even though we will learn how to use different platforms from the lens of being an educator, I can apply what I will learn to my field of interest, psychology . Learning how to design and upload informative materials is a great tool to help spread awareness on psychology-related topics, like the i...

Microsoft Word is a tool I have used multiple times as a student. While in middle school, we learned how to use the software as part of our technology class and the skill has been useful ever since. In high school, I had multiple assignments that required MS, including writing essays and making content summaries. It also has been a great tool for writing my class notes during college. I still use it very frequently for my college assignments, but I do sometimes prefer Google Docs as their format is a lot more friendly. I have also had times where the grammar check setting on MS turns off so I end up moving to Google Docs to finish assignments.   The most meaningful ISTE standard for me is 2.2 Leader. I have always believed that educators have a big responsibility as they directly influence their students' lives. Growing up, I had multiple teachers who only cared about following the curriculum and had little to no interest in our success. If educators act like leaders within the cla...

  One digital standard that caught my attention is the ELA.8.C.5.2. This standard explains the importance of learning how to use a variety of digital tools that make it easier to collaborate with others when producing written material. With my current skill set, I do feel prepared to implement this standard with my students. I have experience using online tools like Google Docs, which are extremely helpful when simultaneously working with a group to write an article, paper, or any other written product. If my students face difficulties, I would be able to answer their questions and guide them through the learning process. As a psychology student, I was intrigued by reading the standards set for this subject. Even though the standards were very specific and diverse, one thing I noticed was the lack of resources listed for most of the standards. Out of the first 20 standards that appeared, only one had listed resources, SS.912.P.2.2 (describe and compare a variety of quantitative and...
