Educational Technology

     As a teacher, I would ensure my students are educated about copyright and fair use. I would make sure students would not use materials that they were not allowed to and also double-check my materials. I learned a lot about copyright and fair use, especially fair use. I had heard of the concept but never fully understood about it until now.      Implementing technology is bound to have some problems. One of the major ones is academic dishonesty. Students frequently use things like AI and Chatgbt to do their work for them. A solution to this is going back to technology-free learning.

I hope to apply my knowledge in my everyday life and in my profession. For example, creating infographics for parents with children who has speech or language problem.     My prior experiences in using technology in educational settings is creating presentations and a website.
