1. I've experience with so many new tools. How fun! I think I will try to implement the use of image generators and digital storytelling. During math, students may be able to gather images that represent certain shapes. Where as in Social studies, reading, and science, students may use image generators to find pictures that help them remember the importance of a topic. Digital storytelling will work wonders in the classroom. Students will be able to create a story, summarize a lesson, or extend a lesson through storytelling.
2. All of these tools have transformed my thinking. As I worked on all the tools, I kept brainstorming ways in which I could implement them in my lessons. Students learning should be fun and this definitely allows them to have fun while learning.
3. This program has allowed me to learn at my own pace. It allowed for more 'play time' with the tools. Now I can implement my new knowledge into students' learning.

Tool #11
In YOUR blog post, discuss at least three things you would want to make sure your students understand about being good digital citizens. Explain briefly how you would "teach" the idea of digital citizenship to your students.
Some of the 3 most important things to help students understand digital interaction are: etiquette, role (using the info for learning), and safety. How would I teach this idea?...hmm... ?I think it is more of a process, it would be difficult to teach it. However, I would start off by role playing. I would blindfold a student and have them walk around the room to find the stuffed animal I have placed somewhere. This would incorporate all three ideas. How? Because when we are online we don't know what we are going to run into, we don't know what we might hear, and we don't know what's going to pop up onto the screen. We have to carefully search around for the information needed.
