Hi my name is Emily Oakes and I am from Orlando Florida. I am a junior at Florida State University majoring in family and child sciences with a minor in education and psychology. My career goals are to be guidance counselor at a high school.  I grew up playing softball, I love sports and the outdoors. I love hanging out with my friends and family. H

I have had various uses of technology in the education setting. The most common being canvas, word, and PowerPoint. I am not the most advanced when it comes to technology, but I know enough. I am good at both PowerPoint and word. I struggle more with excel. One of my newer technology experiences in my education is zoom. Zoom took a little getting used to but it is very user friendly.

I have a few learning resources I use to support my learning. One that I use a lot is peers and classmates that I have classes with. I enjoy studying with my peers and seeing the material from other points of view. Another resource I use a lot when it comes to studying for tests is quizlet. I like making my own quizlets or studying ones on the information I am learning.

This standard is about using your role as a teacher to speak up about getting the technology resources students need to meet each of their needs. Equity is something that I believe is so important in the education field. Not every child’s needs or resources are the same. Each student should have what they need to succeed. Technology and digital content have become a huge part of education. However, there are some students who can’t afford a laptop or do not have Wi-Fi at

  In the future I plan to teach 2 nd grade general education. I plan to use surveys to track their progress. I would use it to see what they know before and after lessons. This will also allow me track the effectiveness of my lesson giving. The topics I found most interesting when reviewing my classmates’ blogs is the diversity. None of the websites or blogs I saw where the same. Everyone has their own sense of style and their own creativity, and it shows. I really enjoyed looking at my classmate’s website designs. We all had the same directions, yet all put it together differently and I love that. I think it really speaks about education in general were all doing the same thing, yet we all have our own way of doing it. While I do not have any experience with digital badges and tech flex I read about them. I think it is a a great idea. It’s a great way to get involved and get excited about educational technology. It’s a great way to bring and keep fun in learning. The technology
