      Copy right is a legal right to ownership of something. For example, if someone publishes a book and has it copy righted, they have the legal right to claim that book as their own and only they will have the right to copy that material. So if a book is copyrighted, only the author/owner can legally print more copies of that book. Fair use deals with copy right in the sense that something that is copyrighted may still be used or quoted without paying the creator, but only if it is for purposes like teaching, criticism, research, ect. I would deal with these principles as a teacher by making sure if I was copying any material, it would follow under the fair use principles for teaching. For my students, I would also make sure they were informed of copy right and fair use so they did not use any work that was not their own without it being fair use.      A recent loophole with copy right has been the use of Chat GPT by students. Chat GPT is an artificial i...

      I am very experienced using MS Word as it was the only software I used all throughout K-12. Similarly to FSU, all my schools always provided Microsoft office for students, so it was what everyone used. However, when I got my own laptop for college, I got a Chromebook so even though FSU still provided office, using google programs, specifically google docs was far easier than using word. When I switched to primarily using google docs due to easier access I also found that the program itself functioned much better than Word. For me, word has a more difficult user interface, less advanced tools and functions, and also seems to be less optimized for general use. When using word, I find that everything takes longer to load, and the program itself crashes occasionally, while google docs never has for me, so I really prefer google docs.     The most meaningful ISTE standard to me is, "Educators continually improve their practice by learning from and with others a...

 Hello! My name is Korynna Moncada and I am a third year psychology major with minors in Education and Social work. After graduation I hope to get my Master's in social work to be a clinical social worker. I'm a third year member in the marching chiefs as well where I play mellophone. I am also in the Math Thinking and Learning Lab with Colleen Ganley here at FSU so math education is particularly interesting to me! My experience with technology in educational settings is pretty limited. I am quite familiar with powerpoint/ google slides as I have been required to make those types of presentations for most of my education. I have used the basics of excell on my own and have been exposed to navigating more complex excell sheets in my lab but I haven't made complex ones myself. I am also familiar with canva and wix from ENC 2135. I have also used a variety of social media platforms like twitter and tik tok in educational settings before. My personal learning network is mainly ...
