Tonight in class, we first learned about Poll Everywhere, a website used for polling. Our professor had questions on the poll in a quiz-like form that we answered using text messages. It's so nice to be able to take a little quiz by just texting our professor's Poll Everywhere number. We also began learning how to create concept maps. I don't even recall ever seeing concept maps when I was in school, but they're such a neat method to use when teaching a lesson. I have the basics done, but I've barely made a dent in making my concept map what I really envision; thankfully I have a free weekend to make it perfect.

https://app.wizer.me/preview/1CBZM6 This week I completed my EdPuzzle video and Wizer worksheet assignment. I really enjoyed being able to use EdPuzzle to create an educational video that includes a little quiz throughout the video. The Wizer website was super fun and easy to use to create a worksheet that went along with my video. I can definitely see myself using both of these sites in the future when I'm a teacher.
Well, I didn't exactly have a free weekend like I had originally believed, so I just completed my web tools assignment. Using RubiStar was extremely easy, and making a word search worksheet on Education.com was really fun; it was my favorite part of the assignment, which is why I included a photo of it. Making a quiz was a bit more complicated for me to think of questions to ask; I probably didn't do that well, but, hey, at least I completed it, and that's what matters the most, I guess.
This week's assignment consists of a research paper and a presentation. For our paper, we have to research the accommodations available on a certain operating system (I chose MacOS, as that's what I personally use) for those who are disabled in the following ways: visually, hearing, physically, cognitively, and language impaired. So far, I have pretty much finished my paper, so the next step would be to work on my presentation that covers the things that I learned about the operating system and its accommodations.
