    I've learned a lot of new skills from working on the Web Design project that I can use in many areas of my career, especially as I start my own business as a future speech therapist. I got more proficient in designing user interfaces through this project. I learned how to apply rules like keeping things simple, consistent, and clear. As an example, I made sure the layout was clean and the navigation options were easy to understand so that users could easily find what they needed. I also used adaptable design elements to make the website work better on a variety of devices, which made it easier for everyone to view. What I liked best about this task was that it let me be creative while still following the rules for design. I found the task of finding a good balance between looks and functionality to be both interesting and sometimes frustrating. Still, these website design skills will help me a lot in my future job because they help me market my services and interact with potential clients online, building a strong professional image.

AI tools like ChatGPT are a part of my daily life, though they only play a small part. I don't depend on ChatGPT too much, but I do use it a lot to get ideas or help when I'm writing papers or looking for words. Its ability to spark thoughts or give different points of view can be very helpful. But I only use AI tools for specific tasks; I haven't looked into how to use them for more general purposes. Still, I'm excited to learn more about their possibilities as they continue to grow, especially since they could make many jobs easier and boost productivity.

Using ChatGPT for classes has been a beneficial experience. I've learned about the pros and cons of AI chatbots by practicing with different tasks and watching what happens. While it's interesting to see how ChatGPT can respond in a logical way to input, it's also important to be aware that it can be biased and wrong. My view of AI has changed as I've learned that while it can be very helpful, it also has risks, especially when it comes to spreading false information or making biases stronger. As a teacher, to talk to my students about these risks, I would should encourage them to think critically and be skeptical when using AI-powered platforms. I would also stress how important it is to check information from trustworthy sources.

There's no doubt that AI tools could make people more productive, and I'm open to using them in my job as a teacher to make things easier and run more smoothly. You can make some of the tasks that teachers have easier by using tools like AI-powered grading systems to give students feedback quickly or virtual helpers to handle administrative tasks. Additionally, educational systems that use AI can tailor students' learning to their specific requirements, making it easier for them to understand. When AI tools are used in education, there needs to be a balance between using them to their full potential and keeping ethical concerns in mind. This way, AI tools should add to human knowledge and connection, not replace it.

     As for using Twitter for my Personal Learning Networks, I haven't really done that before. For now, though, I know that these sites can help professionals and teachers connect, share tools, and have conversations. Twitter is great for networking and keeping up to date in your field because it lets you post updates and have conversations with people all over the world. Talking to teachers, experts, and other students on Twitter can give you useful information, different points of view, and chances to work together. In the future, these tools could help me keep up with the fast-changing field of AI and add to debates in the tech community as a whole.      The digital divide has a big effect on how well students do in school. The difference between those who can use digital tools and those who can't is this divide. Inequality in the economy, a lack of infrastructure, and a lack of access to the internet are some of the reasons for this. As a...

 Being a distant student was interesting and demanding, during the Covid-19-induced remote learning phase. The freedom that distance learning provides is one thing I value about it. My ability to attend lessons from the comfort of my own home improved my time management and flexibility in handling other obligations. The availability of resources on the internet has also improved my educational experience. On the other hand, I discovered that two significant drawbacks were the absence of in-person communication and the classroom's feeling of community. It frequently gave off an isolated, disjointed vibe. I see how crucial it is to close this gap for distant learners as a future instructor. More interactive elements in online courses, the creation of virtual communities through discussion boards or group projects, and consistent feedback and assistance can all greatly improve the experience of distant learners and make them feel more fulfilled and engaged. Open Educati...
