Major Project- Quizizz
Who doesn’t love a good classroom game to review? I sure do! I was first introduced to Quizizz by my students earlier this year. I was a bit confused as to why they were using it during tech time until I found out they were making quizzes to test each other. I had tried BlooketContinue reading “Major Project- Quizizz”
Major Project- Instagram
This app is by far the one I used the least during my major project. At first, I wasn’t going to include it in my major project since it didn’t exactly go the way I planned. However, Instagram is a platform I scroll the most on my personal account ( Tik Tok is probably goingContinue reading “Major Project- Instagram”
Major Project- Padlet
For one of my educational apps, I wanted my students to try something different than Google Slides to present one of their projects. When I was recommended Padlet by a coworker, I knew I wanted to use it! I had heard of it before but never had the chance to try it out until aboutContinue reading “Major Project- Padlet”

At the beginning of this project, I asked my students using a survey which social media apps they use, as well as which educational apps they enjoy in school. I did take their ideas into consideration, but I also did some research, asked some coworkers, and decided to change my path a little bit toContinue reading “Major Project Update #2”
Major Project Update #1- The Elements of Digital Citizenship and TikTok
My first go at using TikTok wasn’t until Fall 2021 when I explored the app for EC&I 831. I didn’t want to download it beforehand since I knew I would become a daily TikTok scroller. My post from last fall, explaining the pros and cons of TikTok definitely wasn’t the end of my time onContinue reading “Major Project Update #1- The Elements of Digital Citizenship and TikTok”
Major Learning Project- Introduction
When I was given the choices for our Major Learning Project, I immediately knew which one I wanted to pursue during the duration of EC&I 832. I came into my teaching career pretty recently so I have always had access to technology to help me teach. I have also only taught middle school, which isContinue reading “Major Learning Project- Introduction”
