Hailey’s World

 This week we had to read chapters 3,4, and 5. This was a great read on how to be project based learning in the classroom. I learned about the benefits of it and how to carry it out. We created a power point on the summaries of these chapters and it helped me retain the information more.  I enjoyed this technology class and learned many ways to have technology in the classroom! 

 During week 7, I have learned about the website ChatGPT. This was new to me. It reminds me of using "Hey Siri", on my iPhone. It is a website that can be used to ask questions or say statements and it will give you a response to it. It will quickly type out a response and I did not notice any spelling or grammar issues. The information it provided me with for my question was an accurate answer. However, I am not sure about if it can answer any question there is.  This is a great tool to ask simple questions but I do not think that it is essential to using in writing papers. There is no creditable evidence. It would not look very good on a paper to cite ChatGPT for your sources. This can be a growing issue for educators because it can be an easy way out for students instead of them doing their own research for their paper topics. I do not think I will continue to use it after this assignment. 

 During week 6, we learned how to use google earth to create a story or screencast. This assignment was easy but yet fun. It was awesome to be able to explore places that I have never been too before and see what they look like. I was stuck for a while on what I wanted to do for this assignment because I was just exploring everywhere.  I ended up deciding to do it on 5 places that I would like to visit. I am a beach girl, so I chose 5 places with the most beautiful beaches in my eyes. It made me want to save up and book the trips as soon as possible. This assignment will be good for students because we can have them choose an important person and be able to view the places they were when events took place or where they grew up.
