     I think as a teacher I will like to use data collection in my classroom a bit. I could surveys to decided how certain aspects of the classroom are done and by having my students deicide them. For example, I want to be a third grade teacher so maybe I could use a survey to decide on certain methods to teach my students but by asking them to decide on one that best works for them. When teaching math, for example, I think choosing a method that my students learn from the best could lead for the best results in the classroom so by having them complete a survey it would really help me to see what they enjoy and learn best from.      Something that I found interesting were the differences my blog had compared to my classmates. Like for example, some of them included certain topics that I had not thought about but was interested by my classmates adding them. While looking at some PLN's it allowed me to see familiar tools that I would not have thought about adding my own PLN but it go

     My experience as a distant learner this semester has probably been the best it has ever been. I usually do not like taking online courses but I have felt pretty motivated this semester even though I had two classes online. In the past I have disliked the lack of contact between teachers, but I think my professor has done a great job at communicating with us. I enjoy reading her announcements and feedback. When I am a teacher, something I can do to improve the experience of distance learners is to allow more engagement from me to my students to occur to keep them motivated.       Open Educational Resources (OER) are learning resources that are mainly offered online that allow anyone to utilize and can be used in multiple ways.

A specific teacher productivity tool I can use in my future classroom could be Google Docs. With the internet playing a huge role in school, I think using Google Docs will allow for my students to have their work organized and easy to find.
