Hi Everyone! Happy half-way point!
There are a lot of cool academic software tools. I will definitely continue to use microsoft word because I think it's so diverse and there are so many things you can do with it. From making charts, to taking notes, to writing papers, to creating resumes, I think word can do it all. I'll encourage my students to explore all of the things they can do with word. I'll also use TopHat. I got introduced to TopHat in college. It's an app that can be used on a phone or computer that runs during the class and has students answer questions on the lesson the teacher has created. I think it's a great way to make sure students are engaged in learning and aren't drifting off.
I love twitter! I've been talking to so many of my classmates and follow a lot of cool education twitter accounts. I've been updated on current events in the education world as well as current events in this class! I think twitter could be used in a classroom to remind students of due dates, or quickly share a message with your whole class. Since social media is so relevant, I really think it'd be cool as a teacher to use twitter as a means of communication.
