I acquired many new skills after completing the web design assignment. I learned how to add maps, as well as being able to add my social media links. I used design principles like CRAAP to stay clear and appealing to my audience. I used these when choosing fonts, colors and format. I liked the way the requirements and additional skill points encouraged us to add more to our website, as well as trying new features in weebly. 
A creative way I could use QR codes in my classroom is by linking a QR code to my website on parent letters, to make sure the students and parents stay on track with what is needed and expected throughout the year. If I was teaching older grades, I could link the syllabus onto a QR code, or a school supply list. I feel like QR codes are a easy tool to link class information on, especially with how much of the younger generation uses technology in the classroom. Having access to information on your phone can be more useful, as sometimes students don't keep track of papers handed out to them.
A case study I found touches on ethics for technology use in the classroom. I believe this case is a ethical issue because it talks about complexities of ethics in Kindergarten classrooms with technology. It says how most children are using some type of device before entering school. The issue is no one prepares them for cyberbullying or copyright and plagiarism issues. I believe this is a ethical issue because parents will sometimes throw technology at kids at such a young age, without giving them restrictions or teaching them how to use technology properly. This causes lasting issues in education, as some students will use technology negatively in the classroom.

I loved your website. I liked how the whole website followed a clear color theme and was aesthetically pleasing. I think you did a great job of following the CRAP principles. I think your lists turned out very well and the same formatting was used throughout.
ReplyDeleteGreat job on your website! The contrast makes all of the content really easy to read. The alignment and Proximity don't seem off anywhere on the website. I like that you used a few of the same colors throughout your design.
ReplyDeleteHi Lily! I love how colorful and visually appealing your website is! The opening image is legible and easy to read with the contrasting elements of the background image. Everything was organized and spaced out, which made things coherent and easy to read. Overall, I loved your website!
