My experience with twitter has been an overall good experience. I found it very useful to interact with other people, and find out what is happening in todays world. I learned alot of other things that helped me out with my overall experience. I also learned how to use this as an educational way, by expressing my thoughts on new material learned. I have no experienced any issues yet, and everything seems to be easy to use. New skills that I acquired from working on the Web Design assignment includes providing useful information. It also creates and easier way to research and find out new things beyond the web page. I like how we can use this because technology has become a big part of our lifes today. This also makes it more convenient for people to find each page they are interested in. Assistive technologies used that can help support learners is smart boards.

Teacher pages on a school websites are very common today. With the wide use of technology and internet based resources, it is easy for teachers, students and parents to access these pages and websites. I find that it is easier for teachers to keep track of what is happening in the classes and keeps parents snd students informed. I personally prefer that my teachers have their won websites so I can find out all the information i need for that specific class. When I did my research I found that majority of the websites are for middle school and elementary school. To access these you would need to log into them. I envision myself using technology to accomplish my professional responsibilities more efficiently and effectively for many reasons. When I graduate, I would like to become a sales manager. By being in this position, I would need to stay organized, and by having the proper softwares can help me keep on track with other companies. The internet plays a big role in technology when i...

The Smart Board has been a vast part of my learning experience throughout the last few years due to its high quality in technology, which as allowed me to enhance my learning abilities drastically. For example, in my College Algebra class in my freshman year, my professor owned a Smart Board which came with colored pens to write on the board with. Instead of using a white board to do math problems on, we used the Smart Board where instead of having to worry about erasing the whole board afterwards, it simply erases everything on the board with the click of a button. It helped my class go through problems faster, which then helped me advance faster in the class. The Smart Board is a good way for students to all participate in the class, and another advantage of it is to not have to worry about having to read sloppy handwriting. All in all, the Smart Board is an amazing way to help students grow and to help make learning fun. This is a picture of what a Smart Board looks like.

When I first downloaded the iTunes  app 'twitter' I honestly did not use it that often because I was young and did not really have any followers. Once I got into high school all of my classmates and friends began using the app more. With the amount of users increasing people began posting about real lie problems because it was the easiest way to connect with the world. Its become beneficial because when I look through my feed I can see political posts from the President, or the latest news. Twitter could be extremely useful for my future career because this source of social media is the easiest way to spread a business. I have seen and followed many companies and stores on my own account just because of my interest in the products being sold. 'Twitter' could also be a great way to network, to meet new people who could possibly hire me in the future.  Digital divide is interesting in my opinion, because people in our society are very dependent on technology, when in...
