     I looked at multiple school pages to see the type of information it provided for students and parents. I explored mostly on the Leon High School page, and found a lot of great information. One teacher, Scott Evans, had a brief summary of himself, and a lot of great additional resources for parents and students to use. It also contained a class calendar, which is helpful for parents and students.  Scott Evans (Leon High School)     Technology will be helpful in my long-term career goal of going into full time ministry. I plan to use things like Google Calendar and Google Docs to plan and schedule meetings and events at my job. If I do become a teacher, I think having Tik Tok will be helpful as they have a lot of great information for teachers. I would follow accounts that would give good lesson plans and organization hacks.      I did not like the Wiki platform. It had a lot of issues and we were unable to use it.

In other words, this standard is having students learn to be comfortable using various platforms in order to locate the information that they need. I do feel prepared to implement this standard as I have worked with different text features at my job at the bookstore. We would implement electronic menus and icons into our website.      The tool I found on the CPLAMS website was a science hunt that students could go on in the classroom. This tool allows students to locate and observe different items in the classroom and places an emphasis on the 5 senses. I would use it in my classroom because I think it would be a great opportunity for students to grow in their investigative skills. Also, it would allow students to learn about different items they can locate with their senses.      It is important to be a proficient Internet s
