Welcome

 Hello everyone, welcome to my blog "Queen Kay In Display". A little bit about myself, my name is Kaitlyn but, I go by Kay. I am twenty-one years old with a one year old daughter named Kailani, Princess Kay. I attend the Florida State University where I am a junior majoring in Public Health with a minor in Education. My aspirations are to be the best mom I can be and get my masters in Nursing and become a pediatric nurse.

When it comes to technology, I would say I am very knowledgeable on the topic. My prior experiences involving technology in an educational setting involves three certifications in Microsoft: Word, PowerPoint, and Excel and three certifications in adobe: Photoshop, Illustrator, and Dreamweaver. All six of my certifications I received while I was in high school. I also assisted my teachers in training other students and helping them obtain their certifications. Given the generation I am in, it is imperative to be knowledgeable especially for educational purposes. 

I am kind of confused on what a personal learning network is. I have never heard of it until I was presented with this question. I believe my personal learning network is heavily centered around different websites and my own gathering of information. I do not like being heavily dependent on my teachers and professors because I like to teach myself in my own manner so I often retrieve the information from them and then find ways to retain the information on my own by using a plethora of learning sites, flash cards, et cetera. Also, I utilize the help from my peers via different group chats and Quizlets so, they are also a major portion of my personal learning network.

      The ELA standard I chose is for fifth grade classes in which states "i nclude multimedia components (e.g., graphics, sound) and visual displays in presentations when appropriate to enhance the development of main ideas or themes." This standard implements the need to emphasize the main ideas and themes in presentations by utilizing special effects such as music, animations, et cetera in order to help develop these important pieces of information for the students. I think this would be easy for me to implement since I am already using graphics and sounds in my presentations now. This standard was taught to me as early as middle school for PowerPoint presentations and there are now more creative and easier ways to implement this standard so, I will be able to utilize this standard with my current skill set.     The resource that I found in the CPALMS' toolkit was the video game store. It was located under grade level 5 and in the math subject area. This resource utili

 Prior to this assignment, I did not even know how to make a website. This assignment taught how to make one and provided me with the aspects to include in a website. I liked that this assignment allowed me to get creative and actually imagine what aspects I'd like included in my classroom. I dislike how tedious the assignment was and how long it took me to complete. What I learned can help me with my future career because now I am able to create my own website without having to find someone else to do it. Please visit my website at  https://mskay5.weebly.com/ Honestly, I did not learn any new skills from Diigo. I do not like the layout of the software and I also do not care to use it in the future. I do not think it will be useful in my future endeavors as teacher. I would not recommend or use Diigo with my students, team members, or for my own professional efforts. Technology is evolving everyday; there are updates made and new technological advances introduced. As teachers, keep
