     I think teacher pages on schools websites are important. I think it can provide very basic but important information. I choose to look for my old high schools teacher pages. I think it looks very basic but helpful. It provides teachers email, phone number, area of teaching and a picture of the teacher. It has enough information to get in contact with the teacher so I think it is a good resource.  https://www.collierschools.com/site/Default.aspx?PageID=2400      I envision using technology to accomplish professional responsibilities more efficiently and effectively by using the internet to send emails to potential employers, look for jobs, created a resume in Microsoft Word, and attend potential meetings that could be online or over Zoom.

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.

     My early experiences with twitter have been very minimal, but informative. For example, I began to follow FSU COE, and other education profiles. The fsu COE, twitter account posts announcements about what is happening in the college and deadlines. I believe that could be beneficial because it will allow me to familiarize myself with programs/events in the future when I am accepted into the college. Twitter can be helpful in my future career by allowing me to connect with other teachers that cold give me advice or vise versa.       The digital divide affects student success in schools because it creates barriers for certain students to access online homework, test prep, or help on the internet just in general. If a student is incapable of having access to the internet or having a device that could allow them to use the internet, it could affect their academic success. In my future classroom, I want to make sure all my students are capable of doing their work in school and out of s
