 1) Khan's vision of personalized learning

I agree with Khan's vision of personalized learning because it contributes to a strong foundation for students learning. There may be disadvantages to this strategy, but I think it will be helpful for kids learning to do independent study at their own pace in and outside the classroom. For example, Khan offers instructional videos and exercises for students to empower their learning in whichever area they may try to tackle—math, science, etc. With Khan's vision, it provides a focus on skills that will make learners adapt to it and apply it to their learning.

2) Google Classroom

I liked about every feature in Google Classroom, such as the ability to create announcements, assignments, quizzes, etc. The most important is that teacher can monitor students work, keep track of their progress, and be able to provide help when students need it. Another feature is schedule post in advance and can be reuse post to multiple classes which is fast work and save time. I liked how organized things are when creating assignments; everything that needed to be input in detail can be done through the questions created (like score, right answers, etc.). I really liked that Google Classroom really provided benefits according to its purpose and aim, which is to provide a learning tool for teachers and students to communicate with each other, share files, and create, distribute, and grade assignments in a more efficient and accurate way.

  1. I like the words that you used there which is "empowering their learning". I think its true that with this concept that Khan taught which will probably penetrate inside many classrooms and educational institutions in the world because it really focuses on the core of education which are students. The focus of any teacher in the teaching field should be their students because they will be a product of the teacher's success.
    In addition, google classroom is one important feature in the teaching that I am starting to love myself. Tonight, as I create my own classroom as an assignment, methought at first that it is very complicated but then while working on it, I kind of like it. Looking forward to exploring its features and applying in our course study. Thank you for sharing.

  2. I like Khan's vision as well because it allows students also to focus on areas they need help in and not waste time learning things they have already mastered. For example if I were struggling with Math I would have loved to take my time on that subject instead of being rushed. If I take my time on a certain subject I will eventually become good at it. The only thing is that maybe I might take too much time on one subject and forget the rest.

Blog 1: Using Technology

 Blog 1 Prior experiences using technology My very first-time using technology was so difficult for me. I couldn't figure out how to use it until I played around with it and became acquainted with it, as well as with the assistance of others. It was extremely relaxing knowing how useful technology is and being able to understand how it works. My first encounter with the iPhone, for example, was difficult because I had to use my Apple ID and remember it in order to gain access to the device, and there were many more things for Apple devices, such as keeping it updated to the latest software. However, as I experimented with technology and learned how various devices work, I became acquainted with and gained background knowledge for the future use of new devices. Hope to learn from this class My hope to learn from this class is to be able to gain knowledge on how certain technology works that can be used effectively in future teaching. I also wanted to get familiar with this use of te...

Blog 3: Personal Learning Network

  What does it mean to be a "connected" instructor? To be a connected instructor, you actively participate in the global learning environment, which helps develop a personalized network for professional learning. A well-connected teacher allows others to see his progression, suggestions, and ideas in a specific field, especially in the area of education. It kept tracking down records on your improvement and that other colleges or students may learn or add their ideas to what you've contributed on your side. It helps you stay engaged with your students and collaborate more on the idea of learning, like digitally adapting to some inevitable changes or other relevant things that can help the students.
