Technology in the classroom has become an important part of advancements in education. Academic software for students makes learning easier and more interactive. One software tool I would like to implement in my future classroom is Kahoot. It is an interactive game that students can play to quiz themselves on their knowledge of different subjects. I would use this tool because it helps the students interact with the lesson which will help them retain the information better. Kahoot also allows students to make their own quiz in order to study by testing themselves. Another software tool I would like to implement is called Google Classroom. Google already has a lot of tools that allow for student and teachers to better organize, collaborate, and communicate as a class. Google Classroom combines all of these tools into one software that allows for students to keep information organized and easy to access. This tool allows for classroom discussion, feedbacks and comments, and parents and guardians to manage and view work all while keeping lesson materials and resources organized and easy to access. I would use this tool often because it allows for students to access all aspects of the classroom in one software, making it easier for them to find information and collaborate with other students.
I have very much enjoyed using Twitter as a tool for this class. Before this course, I did not realize how many educators use this tool to communicate and share information. I have been interacting with our fsu2040 hashtag as well as following some famous educators in order to absorb some of their knowledge about educational technology. Twitter is a very popular social media platform among high school and college students. I have seen many teachers use twitter to interact with their students in a funny yet educational way. I think using this platform in my future career might allow me to connect with students in a different way, and possibly help share my experiences of education with others.
