    This was my first time using the Weebly website, so I was still figuring out how to navigate it while creating my website. I learned how to add a google calendar into a website. I also learned that you can add little bits of code into the Weebly editor in order to add specific elements to it. I can apply the skills I learned in this assignment in my future career because I am now familiar with a new website editor. The only thing I disliked about this assignment was that I had difficulties editing the text in the header. Visit my website here .

    Diigo taught me how to bookmark pages and share them with a group. I also became more familiar with the bookmarking tool itself. This application can be useful in my classroom with team members because I can share useful links. It can also be helpful in my individual professional efforts because I now have a place to store specific bookmarks and visit them when necessary.

    Technology is useful for teacher development because it provides educators with access to many different websites and other resources to find information. Technology also provides teachers with lesson plans that they can use to aid them in teaching their students about technology. The internet is also a great resource to turn to in keeping up to date with the latest advancements in technology. The Forbes website has a great article that shows the recent trends in education and subsequent training technology. Find the website here.
