Pandemic and Online Learning. 

During the pandemic, most schools were shut down, and the same goes for all workplaces. However, school and work still continued with the blessing of technology up until these days. If it weren't for the technology, everything would be so hard and difficult for the people, for example, communicating with families, friends, and loved ones. But technology has helped with communication through the internet, people's work, students' learning online, etc. Online learning has provided a great opportunity for teachers to teach and students to learn remotely through technology. It has benefited students to not only learn academically but also get familiar with important online learning features and know more about how to navigate through technology. An example of software that has helped with online learning is Zoom, where teachers and students meet on Zoom like in a real-life class meeting instead of meeting in person. Another program is Canvas or Google Classroom, where assignments and schoolwork are provided for students. 

The importance of the multimedia theory when creating presentation slides.

When creating PowerPoint slides, there are important features that would make your slides more productive, effective, and capture audience attention. Such multimedia elements are video, audio, images, etc. These features, like animation, can make your PowerPoint presentation slides transition smoothly and deliver your presentation well and in a clearer way. Multimedia features bring variety to your slides and help visual learners understand your content better.

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.

  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...
