     When designing my website, I acquired quite a few new skills. I learned how to add links to pictures, this way, you could click on a picture, and it would take you to another page on the website. I liked that I was able to fully customize the template, some website-making pages keep you very confined. I thought that the platform could have been a little more user-friendly. I could use this to make a website with resources for my students in the future. 

    Some ways I might use QR codes in the classroom are for reading support, exit slips, and parent communication. Using QR codes for English Language Learners could be useful during read-alouds. I would link the audio for the stories or text with the QR code. For exit slips, I would put a QR code near the door, and students could scan it to complete an exit slip every day. In a weekly newsletter or handouts to parents, I would include a QR code to additional websites or important links for the parents. 

    AI may produce inaccurate or biased information, especially if it draws on faulty or outdated sources. Teachers should double-check AI-generated content to ensure it aligns with accurate knowledge and standards. This is especially important for subjects where accuracy is critical, like science or history. Teachers should also look for any biases in the AI’s responses, as AI may unintentionally reinforce stereotypes or favoritism.

    If a teacher was using AI to create inaccurate lessons, I would report the teacher to the administration. The administration could then handle the situation. This would be an ethical solution because I would be reporting the teacher to the supervisors not trying to address the issue on my own. AI should be used as a tool not as the main source of information.
