These Google options are all very new to me so here goes...
I am looking forward to learning new ways to strengthen my knowledge base and resources as a potential art teacher because of the rapidly changing world we live in, as expressed in ISTE Nets T standards number 5. By using available internet resources, such as Google Docs, we expose students to the many options out there that they may need to learn how to use in the professional world. By using such resources in Google, we are demonstrating through example just how these tools work, part of component 3 of Nets T. While presenting students with activities in Google Docs, teachers "incorporate contemporary tools and resources to maximize content learning in context."
I have used the resume template under Google Documents for the first time to create an updated resume that is open to the world through this link, unlike a traditional resume filed away digitally on the desktop or in an office drawer. If used for class assignments it could be easier for students to access, provided they have the internet through their phone or at home. No more "my dog ate my homework!"
Language
Nature is art.
My New Blog
I am starting this blog as a narration of my educational journey through a technology course as a potential art teacher but also as another human being trying to find her way in the world by following her passions and goals. One of my goals is to expand on my knowledge of the art world, including the many ways art relates to other aspects of life. This relationship involves searching for the definition of art as well as examining the ways art is used to decipher life itself. In doing so, my blog will hopefully become a rich educational tool for students or aspiring artists.
Art is EXPRESSION of the deliberate, the random, a process, or a finished product. It is fixed or forever changing. It is scientific, spiritual, or both! It stimulates the senses while stirring emotions. It can be literal or abstract. How does art relate to everyday life and why is art important? I want my blog and my future classroom to guide viewers/students through a creative journey that explains just that while relating it to his/her own life.
