Using twitter was new for me, I had to get use to sending tweets and seeing what other people post. I am following other educational pages. Keeping me up to date on things involving education. One article I found was mediation in an elementary school instead of detention.  This article sparked my attention and I wanted to read more. Twitter can be helpful in my future career by just staying up to date with the different changes in education.

The digital divide is relevant and you can see it in the different school districts are even school zones. Looking at the different active learning software this will affect the students who do not have access to technology in their school are community. They would be missing out on word processing, so learning how to write and type papers on the computer, which would help with grammatical structure and spelling. Students are missing tutorials and drill and practice software. They could use this at home, to help them with their home work.  Even educational games that can stimulate their brains, and make learning fun.

When evaluating a website, you should look for credibility. What’s the name of the website who is sponsoring the website? If you are looking at an article on the website, looking to see who wrote it and their credentials is important. It is important to stay away from websites like Wikipedia that can be edited by anyone.
