Teacher Pages

You will usually see the teacher's email so that parents and students can easily reach the teacher. Some teachers give out their number on the page in case of emergencies or if they are extra friendly and don't mind calling outside of school. You might see the teacher's experience, their degrees and how long they have been teaching. It will also show what classes that teacher teaches and the grade that they teach.

Canvas Group Tool

I think the canvas group tool is the hardest part of canvas to understand. It is in different places on mobile vs your computer. It doesn't show if you have new notifications on it from people in your group talking, and no one checks it when we are trying to discuss. Every time a teacher puts us in canvas groups, we always give each other our phone numbers since it is easier to interact through texting.

    Hi! I found your blog post very relatable—especially your comments about the Canvas group tool. I’ve had similar experiences where it was hard to navigate, and it felt like no one was checking it, which made communication frustrating. I liked how you pointed out the differences between the mobile and desktop versions—that can really confuse people who switch between devices.

    Your explanation of teacher pages was also clear and helpful. I agree that it’s important for students and parents to have easy access to contact info, experience, and course details. Maybe you could expand a bit more on how these pages could be improved to help students even more—like adding class resources or weekly updates?

    Overall, great insights! I enjoyed reading your take on both topics.

  Copyright and Fair Use Since I am planning on becoming a teacher for elementary students, I don't think they should stress out about copyright at that age yet. As a teacher, I would try to find worksheets that were available online, of course I would pay for them if I needed to. If I was teacher that was teaching adults, I would introduce them into using Creative Commons more often so they could have their works copyrighted. For students, they think they are just making a piece of work only for their teacher to grade it, so they don't care about their own work usually. Technology Implementation Issues Academic dishonesty can be solved easily if the teachers put in the effort. There are websites now that can detect if a work is AI or has been previously submitted before by another student. Websites like these AI detection services and turnitin.com does most of the hard work for the teacher. Still, the teacher needs to pay attention to each of their students' works enough t...

I have used Microsoft Word since my 8th grade elective class where we got experience using Microsoft Word, Microsoft PowerPoint, and Microsoft Excel. Similar to how the user interface on Apple products are easier to work with than Android products, I think Google Docs is more intuitive. While Microsoft Word has more tools, the amount of things on one screen can make it hard to deal with. Google Docs is more simplified, I like how it looks and it is easier to find previously made documents. When teachers forced me to use Microsoft Word to upload, I would always type it all in Google Docs and then copy it into a word document. The 2.5 Designer standard is most meaningful to me. Students have different difficulties when it comes to learning and some might need more accommodation than others. I want to be there for the students who are having extra trouble when it comes to class. I want to be the one that can see how they are special and influence them into doing what they want and should ...
