History in the eyes of College Sophomore.

Blog Post #10:  Overtime my PLN has advanced to include more people and tools. I learned more tool that could help me with my progression, and learned how to better use them for my future, such as adobe tools, Microsoft tools and programs such as Weebly. I also deepened my relationship and connections with colleagues in the university.  I become more friendly with them and so could spend more quality time with them. I also learned more and connected more with my professors so that we can work together to work on research or just to advance my knowledge in a particular subject.  I a lot of my spaces and tools still stayed the same but I started using the library and college spaces more often.  As a historian, I think data collection tools like surveys or digital questionnaires would be useful for gathering information directly from people who experienced certain events or grew up in specific communities.

I feel like its a good way to implement technology into classrooms, teaching kids technology and other subjects at the same time.

I used the design principles of proximity to align the images and text so that they look cohesive and good. I also used similar texts and colors to make the website look uniform. The biggest thing I didn't like about the website assignment is integrating the different features as it was complicated sometimes to set it up.  Such as integrating the social media into my website as well as the calendar setup. I would use the knowledge of website design in the future to create my own website and already know the process so that it would be easier in the future.  I would use QR codes for extra credit purposes, it can be a mini activity related to the subject or part of a easter egg hunt. The student can scan it and be redirected to a checklist and an extra credit assignment. This will be a self-guided worksheet or a quiz on the subje...
