      Before this class I had never heard of Diigo. Diigo is an amazing tool that helps to keep your websites you use and it allows to highlight and annotate articles that you are reading. Diigo has already been useful to me outside of this classroom. I used it for another one of my classes to annotate and highlight major points in the article I was reading. This website is something that is going to be extremely useful for me in the future. In the classroom this website will be useful for when I am giving lectures because it will allow me to take notes on what I am discussing and I can refer to those points during my lectures. 
     For each of level of blooms taxonomy they can all be used in PowerPoint form. Each level of Blooms Taxonomy can be explained by using PowerPoints.

They are exposed to different technologies such as interactive white boards and the use of different Microsoft applications. Teachers always need to be aware of current technology because they can expose that technology to their students. With professional development events such as workshops and conferences teachers will learn new technology to implement in their teachings.

An open educational resources are basically an online learning resource that are very accessible. These resources allow teachers to adapt these resources and use them with in their classroom free of charge, it helps broaden their material.

In todays society technology is being used widely throughout the classrooms. The reason that technology has become such a wide spread use in the classroom is because technology is growing rapidly. Teachers and students are both using the technology in the classroom because it is a skill that is going to be necessary in the future because technology is only going to grow from here on out. The ISTE standards for educators are very accurate in its goal towards helping students become empowered leaders. One standard that stands out to me is leader. A big part of being a teacher is being able to hold the role as a leader and being able to demonstrate it positively.
