- Diigo I think is a very useful and cool site. It could be used conveniently in a regular classroom, but more so in an online class and for group projects. I think being able to highlight things and leave notes and comments for other people to see is very easy.

- Using a powerpoint, you can describe and make your own blooms taxonomy diagram to explain and show the class the use for it. For all the levels of blooms taxonomy, you can use powerpoint to show demonstrations, use pictures, use graphs and charts to really get in depth of each level.

My name is Kevin Dacruz. I am 21 year old senior here at Florida State University. I am originally from a small town in Connecticut, but moved to Tampa FL as a kid and grew up most of my life there. I am majoring in Media Communication Studies and plan to move to Los Angeles for work after college.  I've always seen technology being used in a school setting ever since I was very young. Whether it was using a computer for an AR test in elementary school, checking out books in the library, or if it was my math teachers using smart boards and elmos for lectures. The smart boards are probably the most advanced technology piece I remember seeing. A lot of my teachers also used a good amount of powerpoints to teach class. In this class I hope to learn how to use different types of programs and technologies I never was familiar with, as well as being able to use it in the educational fashion.

As a communications major here at Florida State, I've grown to learn how essential and beneficial one can be by communicating in the right manner. Something I feel that should be taught more in todays schools maybe starting at the 8th or 9th grade level is communicating properly, and by that I mean knowing how to respond to a certain question or statement using the right words, and how to ask a question or statement when needed. I think public speaking is essential to anyone in life no matter what career one is trying to pursue. Having students make powerpoint presentations and presenting them in class is ideal and really can break a students shell of being shy and being able to talk out loud to anyone and about anything. One thing I think needs learning are bigger words that aren't in the average persons vocabulary on a daily basis. Learning to use bigger words and expanding your vocabulary can really make a difference when talking to someone no matter what the topic is about.

On this page, students and parents can navigate around the page to find out much information on many different things. As you can see, there is a tab for athletics, faculty and staff, which is where you can find contacts for every employee at the school. There is also a programs tab which shows the many different classes and academic programs the school has to offer. There is also a calendar and a resources tab which can you show you the lunch menu for the week and much more. - Using technology will be a huge part of my future career, and really anyone's future career. As a communication major, I am currently learning how to code websites and learning how to web design. I also am decent at excel and plan on getting better at it as I feel like in today's corporate world, are two huge good things to be good at doing. Social media designing is also something I am interested in. In today'
