Well, despite procrastinating finishing my teacher web site, I finally go it finished! I think I spent more time trying to create the individual banners for each page than I should have. It took me such a long time to figure out what class I wanted to use for my site, but I decided on art as it seems to be the main subject that my projects revolve around. I'm not even an artist--just slightly creative. But I tend to gravitate towards the subject still. Anyway, getting back to the point, I really enjoyed using Google Sites to create my teacher website: it was easy and fun to use. I've created websites before, so it was nice to refresh my memory. I know there are things about my site that could be improved: the footer is a bit blurry (I honestly gave up on trying to make it perfect). But the whole site accomplishes the main goal of the assignment, so I'm fairly pleased with it.

This week we had to complete our Read a Book assignment. I'm sorry if I'm loud in parts of this because I get carried away sometimes and forget that others have to listen to my voice.

This week, we had to complete our Turnitin assignment. The assignment consisted of two parts: the first was a plagiarized paper, with all of the content taken from the sources that our instructor gave us, and the second was a unique paper that we wrote from our own words. The first paper had to have 90% plagiarism, and our unique paper had to have less than 25% plagiarism when checked with the Turnitin software. My unique paper had 0% plagiarism, which I suppose is just great. The goal of this assignment was to see how easy it is to use this software, which could help when a teacher has to grade a multitude of papers. I have actually used this software before when I was enrolled in community college, and I have always thought it was a brilliant idea to save teachers time in checking if something is plagiarized. I think that this is something that I will definitely use when I'm a teacher, as I'm leaning towards being an english teacher in high school some day.

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.
