  When I initially started using Diigo, I was a bit confused as to how to navigate and what the real purpose of the site was. However, as I continue to use it, I learned that it was used to share online resources and be able to keep them all in the same place. I like using Diigo because there are many online tutorials out there that can help me navigate the site when I get confused and that eliminates confusion. One thing I don’t like about Diigo is the fact that it can be confusing the first time you use it if you have no prior knowledge. I know when I first logged into the site I personally had no idea how to use it.  I personally really enjoy the blogging assignments each week. I really like how easy the site is to navigate, and how it makes it really easy to post and share my blogs, as well as look at my classmates and read their responses. I feel that I have learned more about the topics each week through these types of assignments because I am able to write about them in...

       I was a sophomore in high school when Covid-19 hit and my entire school shifted to Zoom classes, and distance learning. From March of my sophomore year, through September of my Junior year, we were forced to do online learning, through Zoom and Google Classroom.

 When I was younger, in my elementary school years, I didn't use as much technology as much as I do now, but I did use it occassionally. Many of our assignments were on paper and pencil until my Junior year of highschool when Covid-19 hit, we used Google Classroom, then I used Google Docs over Microsoft Word, that is because many of my teachers preferred us to use other software, such as Google Docs. However, I did use other Microsoft tools such as powerpoint, as I do prefer that over Google Slides. In college, I have tended to use Gogle Docs more, because personally I find it easier to navigate when everything is stored in Google Drive.  I did learn something new about the ISTE standards. I learned that they provide guidance for tenchology skills, that should be necessary for success and growth of not only the teacher, but the individual. I think that it is a good idea for teachers to use more technology in the classroom, but should be careful about digital footprint. This is...
