Blog Journal 7

After a lot of digging I was finally able to find the classroom page of my old 7th grade teacher which is nice. I remember this guy because we had this "club" period at the end of school where you signed up for whatever where I just mostly watched 70's cartoons with him and one other student because we seemed to be the only ones who wanted to watch 70's cartoons. But yeah, besides that tangent I did see that he changed his website from what I remember as I can see it was last updated in 2020 (I left in 2018). It seems pretty basic but you can see the general stuff needed most likely just an overview for parents and students of what to expect and sign up for. https://sites.google.com/a/cvsd.net/caplan/home?authuser=0


When it comes to what I would use when it comes to tech and working professionally the first thing that comes to mind is PowerPoint. Whether I follow my current plan into consulting or switch to teaching being efficient at that application is insanely important. It's the driver of communication and can be used in so many applications even for meetings with other teacher on what to do and stuff like that. Using that and combining it with Excel perfectly cuts back on so much time because it can make perfect lessons on top of perfect work for students.


It was an interesting project. At the time I was slammed by many other things so my attention was not fully there as I would have hoped (I was working on The Global Case Competition at Harvard at the same time) but I feel like I understood the assignment and got something out of it. It taught me most importantly the constraints of AI and the strengths. I may have before written AI off as too unreliable to be used in many settings but I realized now it was more usable than I thought it was (Especially in getting the obvious stuff and birds eye information out of the way) which I suppose I have to keep in mind moving forward.
