As a future educator myself I plan on encouraging Technology Professional Development with content focus. With this way of teaching it helps educators themselves learn along with students. They will be most hands on with technology enabling an extensive amount of learning to happen. Teachers can implement things like Virtual Reality into their lesson plans to help students engage even more.
I loved learning about ways to incorporate more fun engaging ways to portray lectures, or games to students. I feel with this new knowledge my student will have more fun engaging with the class therefore keeping them the most interested and learning.

I believe these are great additional pages with information that may not be specific to the class or its content but can still be helpful to a student.    https://mrslowd.educatorpages.com/ I relate this blogging experience to past class assignments called discussion boards.

Open education is a movement focusing on providing many resources, tools and practices free of legal, and financial barriers allowing individuals to use, share and adapt content digitally. Giving those with limited resources and financials a chance to enhance their teaching and learning abilities with more available up to date information. I have personally in the past used Khan Academy an example of an open education source to supplement my own learning abilities. With this source people can have an extra resource of teachings to help motivate their learning and gain quality educational practices for free. Khan Academy provides educational content in areas such as math, science, computing, arts & humanities, economics and even test prep. Open content is content available to anyone for free and gives the person the freedom to retain, reuse, redistribute, revise, and remix the content without the fear of invading on copyrighted content.
