    Copyright protects original works from being copied or used without permission. Fair use lets people use small parts of these works for things like teaching or research as long as they follow certain rules. As a teacher, I would make sure to only use materials that fall under fair use or get permission to use them, and I would teach my students to respect others' work when creating their own. I am still curious about how much of a work can be used before it is no longer considered fair use.
    One issue with technology today is cyberbullying, where people use devices to hurt others online. To solve this, I would create clear riles about online behavior and teach students about kindness and respect. I would also set up a way fro students to report bullying safely and I would make sure to monitor online activities closely. This way, I could stop problems early and keep the classroom a safe place for everyone.
    While working on my newsletter I learned new ways to work Office365's Word. I learned how to implement Word Art into a document and used a color scheme to make my document engaging and eye-catching. I now know how to add columns to make the newsletter look more professional and clean. In the future I could add more detailed information and relevant graphics. I would also choose a different theme to swich it up and make my newsletter more exciting.

I enjoyed making the layout clear and engaging but found balancing all the elements challenging. These web design skills will be helpful in my future teaching career, where I can create classroom websites for students and parents to find resources, assignments, and important updates.      One creative way I could use QR codes in my classroom is by placing them on each student’s desk to link to personalized assignments or extra resources. Students could scan the QR code to get that day’s activity or task without needing paper handouts. This method could also make independent work more engaging and a great way to keep students interested while...

     My freshman year we had Covid-19 so I had some experience with distance learning. We used platforms like Zoom and Google Classroom. I found Google Classroom effective for organizing assignments and due dates, but Zoom made it harder to focus than in-person classes. I haven’t tried virtual reality for learning, but I’d like to; it seems like a fun way to make lessons more engaging.      Open Educational Resources (OER) are free learning materials anyone can use or share. They include things like textbooks, worksheets, and lesson plans online. I found a website that has OER for teaching history in classrooms. Here is the link to the website I found https://www.oerproject.com/      In Assignment 4, I learned how to use design principles like contrast, repetition, alignment, and proximity (CRAP) in PowerPoint. I enjoyed choosing images and animations to make the presentation more interactive, but I didn’t like the time it took to add details...
