Blog 7

     My experience on twitter prior to being in this class mainly consisted of interacting with friends and updating followers on various activities I was up to. With this class I have learned what else could be found on twitter and it altered my viewpoint of what social media platforms can be used for. Such as an institution, like Florida State, using twitter to post updates on different events going on around campus and it allows a closer connection for students to get faster updates on what they are interested in. My main issue I experience with twitter is forgetting about it. Since I never used it before or saw all of the opportunities it can provide I often find myself not remembering the importance of it and posting updates.
     With the web design assignment the hardest thing I had to deal with was figuring out how to make one of their preset layouts look the way I wanted it to and edit all of their words/art work to be my own. While designing my website I gathered new skills such as the ones went over with "CRAP" to make sure it was visually appealing and easy to use at the same time. In the future this assignment will help me know different tools to design a website for different classroom needs.

     Although I do not personally know anyone who has used an adaptive learning tool they are very beneficial to people who have disabilities. Such tools include an adaptive keyboard which varies depending on how the person needs to be assisted. They can have limited input options on the keyboard and provide visual aids. Challenges that could arise would be multiple kids needing different variations of the keyboards and not being able to afford all the different sorts.
