Lukas's EME2040

- Data collections (surveys) and excel are both helpful in my opinion. Surveys could be used for any grade level I think, to ask students gain feedback on certain things. For example, the end of the semester surveys that Florida State sends their students at the end of every semester is helpful for the school so they know what areas professors should maybe work on for future reference. Excel sheets can be very useful if you're teaching a math class. My roommate who is an accounting major, uses excel on a frequent basis for accounting classes as it requires you to really know how to use it for the different reasons. I would say excel can start being used in school at around 9th grade.  - A topic I found interesting on a classmates blog was from Jamie Rudden, she did one of her powerpoint assignments on Florida and different cool facts about it.

For example, if my professor had a twitter account and used it to update students on assignments, etc. Twitter will notify you when they tweet to keep you updated. - The web design assignment didn't really bother me much. I am just so happen to be taking a web development class currently. So I used the program we use for that class to create our websites and coding, to help me with our assignment in EME2040. I won't

- I really like the "flipped classroom" strategy because I feel like students have more control within the classroom. It really promotes student-centered learning and collaboration, and also it makes it easier for parents to access to see what their kids are learning and doing. However, there are a few downfalls to it. - A open educational resource is very useful and beneficial. They are accessible and free openly licensed assets that are used for teaching, learning or researching. Whether it is media or text. This can be very useful for the reason that a teacher can use another resource to teach without having to worry about something like copyright infringement for example.  https://www.govtech.com/education/higher-ed/What-Are-Open-Educational-Resources.html This is a good article about OER. It goes into detail about how it wad found, what it does and why it is beneficial. - The powerpoint assignments are cool because I got to learn new ways to use Powerpoint and do th
