I have been enjoying my time using twitter. I have learned a lot from the accounts that I follow including educational accounts and my fellow classmates. I have also enjoyed interacting with the @eme2040 account with their twitter challenges. Some of the benefits of twitter include collaborating with others and hearing from other people. This can provide people with different perspectives, suggestions, or praise on an idea/concept. I haven't had any issues with using twitter, however, I have had trouble remembering to go on it.
I loved working on the Web Design assignment. I really liked the Weebly program because it made creating our website really simple and easy. It was nice to be able to pick a template and then customize it any way I wanted. When it's time for me to have a classroom website for my own classroom, I will definitely make it more kid-friendly. Weebly is definitely the website I would use to create my own website, whether it be a personal blog site, a classroom website, etc.
Assistive and adaptive technologies are technologies that help people with disabilities perform tasks with ease or independently. There are technologies to help people with physical disabilities and learning disabilities. Some of these technologies include eye trackers, speech and voice recognition devices, mobility aids, alterative keyboards, audiobooks, and many more. Schools provide these different technologies to help their students learn. However, with this comes challenges. Some challenges include funding and access. Not all schools may have the same funding and access to technologies. this can be due to internet access or outdated technologies that no longer work.
The contrast of your website is nice because you kept it very simple. There aren't really any colors to have contrast so it flows nicely. The same font and text is used throughout the website. There aren't any crazy titles or distracting headlines. The alignment of your picture choices are in line. Your information is spread throughout the site. You kept all of your information concise and distributed evenly. There wasn't a lot of emphasis on specific sides of the page and the information looked like it belonged. Overall, the website has a nice and simple aesthetic to it. The all white with black text is very appealing and was easy to navigate.
