Unit Two Tech experience

Unit two was quite a bit easier to get through. I checked out a few of the options listed but I did not find what I was really looking for. I wanted something that was more similar to a schoology style format.
I chose to go with quizlet because I have heard several people on my campus talking about how they like to use it and I decided that since I didnt find what I wanted, I would go with this one in order to familiarize myself with the program. I can see some positive uses for quizlet as both a teacher and administrator.
As a teacher I can use quizlet for students to study vocabulary words. The site allows you to add as many words and definitions as you like. It also has quizzes and matching to choose from.
As an administrator, this site could be used for instructions and professional development.

The development of the course in quizlet was fairly simple and user friendly. I understand why many teachers like the site.

My collegial analysis came from Mr. Condon. Here is what he said, "I think Quizlet is a great tool to use in and out of the classroom. I like that it gives the user options on how to study. The user can create flashcards and matching. This is also a good tool for teachers to have differentiated tests. They can add matching, multiple choice and other evacuation techniques."

Overall, Im not sure I will implement quizlet in my class because it doesnt seem fit my style, plus I already use schoology. I did enjoy exploring the several different sites. I saw some positives with several and I may need to explore a little more to find some that I can implement in my classroom. Exam professor definitely looks interesting to explore more.
