BLOG 6

The website that I found is for a 5th grade math class. From first looking at the website you can tell that the teachers audience is very clear. It is designed in a kid friendly way for both the parents and the students to be able to utilize the site. The type of information displayed on the page are assignments for the class on what they will be doing in class for that day, a meet the teacher page, and it has an awesome resources page available for the parents to use with their children.

In the future Technology is going to be bigger than it is now so it will most definitely play a prominent role in my future professional career. I plan on using certain resources such as Excel, Powerpoint, and Microsoft Word in my professional future. These resources are diverse and can be used for multiple things in the work force. They allow you to utilize organizational skills in a simple, non-complex way.
After going to the tech sandbox room I was completely in awe of all the amazing technology resources that they had. One piece of technology that really stood out to me was the Virtual Reality and 3D printing. I have never seen either of these pieces of technology before and it was cool to see how they work. The 3D printer is something that would be really beneficial to classrooms, especially to the science department. If this was implemented in my science classroom it would mean that the students would be able to see things in 3D. For example if we were to study the anatomy of the body we could have 3D print outs of certain bones or organs which would be a really interesting way to learn.
