Not all students enjoy the same things when learning and sometimes as a teacher you do not know how to make the lesson engaging. Making a survey could give students the options when it came to what kind of art to work on next. Give students a survey with a few different themes. Also, I think it is a smart idea at the end of a quarter to have your students review what you taught how they think it could be better. 

after looking at a few of my peer's blogs I saw we all kept them pretty simple. blogger is new to a majority of us so keeping it simple is common and a good idea for how visually effective and attractive it is. Lots of students tended to choose cool colors like blues. Lots of online apps are blue since it is a relaxing color so I wonder if they were drawn to it because of that or just they like blue. 

I want to learn how to dry and do graphic design on an iPad and re-learn how to use adobe premiere. My goal is to teach art classes and I would love to implement education on graphic design. It is one of the most popular jobs for an artist. I love drawing so I think it would be fun to learn how to use a graphic design app. I use to edit videos and I would like to relearn to make videos for students if online learning becomes a new normal from pandemics or natural disasters.

I am not a fan of my classes being online there is a reason I chose to take in-person classes. I feel less motivated to pay attention during zoom lectures and recorded lecture videos. I get up much later now but I try to get up early a few times a week with friends get coffee and do all our work together like were in class. Also, I have a planner and I plan out my weeks, and checking off assignments has become my motivation. 

open educational resources are resources created for anyone to use. they're free to the public so you do not need to pay for them and you can edit or change them. you have to follow the 5 R's when changing it for it to be legal. My baby bio class has us watch Tedtalks as extra credit and that is an example of one my favorite OER.

I thought this was the easiest to figure out how to use the program since I have made power points before. The only new thing I learned was how to link things to other slides and turn off the setting to click through the slides. Growing up I had always wondered how teachers made the jeopardy game and now I know. I think I need to improve my creativity and make my powerpoints more exciting and fun to look at.
