Who are you, and what do you like to learn about? (academically, professionally, and/or personally)
I am a graduate student at Wheelock. I am also an assistant teacher in a 3rd grade classroom in Cambridge.
I like learning about things I can integrate into my classroom instruction. I also enjoy learning how to differentiate my instruction to my students.
What hardware do you use to learn? (Eg. smart phone, tablet, laptop, desktop)
iPhone, iPad, laptop and desktop only in the Wheelock library and in my classroom.
What software do you use to learn? (Eg. search engines, mobile apps, social networks, eBooks, digital libraries, wikis, blogs, videos, podcasts)
Google, mostly.
Pinterest, online libraries, videos.
What digital tools do you wish you had access to for learning? (Eg. any graphic organizers, mind-mapping tools, resource management tools, progress tracking tools, design tools, etc.) Why?
Anchor charts for various subjects to hang in the classroom.
Planning materials for myself.
What might your ideal Personal Learning Environment (PLE) look like?
Organized and color coded everything. Everything has its own place. Notebooks, pens etc. Planner/agenda book. Quiet and brightly lit.
