During the simulation I had to try to listen to the teacher tell me where to place certain puzzle pieces however there were others talking over the teacher and random noises happening in the background. I found this frustrating. It must be extremely difficult for any student to go through this on a daily basis.]]> 2020-08-11 04:51:21 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/675244755 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/675705170 I chose a student having trouble reading and it was extremely difficult to try to read simple sentences. I could understand why my student I chose did not want to read in front of the class or even read at all.]]> 2020-08-11 14:37:23 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/675705170 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/675717958 The app I chose was Office Lens, which allows students to take a picture of a document using their phone and it will bring allow the student to use Immersive Reader on that specific document. This is a great resource for students who may struggle with reading or are visually impaired. Students who have trouble reading now can see the word and hear the computer pronounce it for them. Great tool to help ESL students as well. ]]> 2020-08-11 14:44:37 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/675717958 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/675838224 I also chose the stimulation matching a student who struggles to pay attention. Like it was said before you had to follow the teacher's instruction while trying to tune out the outside noise. As someone who also struggles to pay attention this is pretty much how I feel in situations similar to that one. ]]> 2020-08-11 15:49:11 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/675838224 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/675850961 The app I chose was the Fractions app. This app allows for a visual representation of fractions; it also allows the students to manipulate them as needed by coloring specific parts in or turning and flipping them to meet their needs. I think this would be extremely beneficial for the students who are visual learners and need help visualizing what parts they are using. ]]> 2020-08-11 15:55:49 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/675850961 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676303416 I chose a student having trouble with math. I had to add coins together to buy different priced items except the value of the coins were not correct. It was very confusing to try to add the oddly numbered coins together. I kept having to take guesses. It slowed down my pace significantly and I begin to feel frustrated. I can imagine how humiliating and upsetting it can be to feel that confused on a daily basis.]]> 2020-08-11 20:47:06 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676303416 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676308808 I chose the Draw and Tell app. This app stuck out to me because drawing was something I used often as a child to express myself. Drawing can be used to communicate complicated ideas students do not yet have the words for. Students can draw out a math problem to solve it, draw their feelings to communicate their needs, draw a picture to help them brainstorm for writing, and so much more. This app would be a great resource for nonverbal students or students who have difficulty expressing their thoughts. ]]> 2020-08-11 20:52:14 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676308808 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676344860 I chose the student who had trouble with writing, and I have to say, it was frustrating. While I was typing the sentences, the letters would change, and I did not get to finish typing 5 sentences in 1 minute. I am so used to flying through words and sentences, so I got really impatient. The way Lucy overcame her barriers was really inspiring. She seems more confident now with writing now that she learned to use graphic organizers to help organize her thoughts. ]]> 2020-08-11 21:28:04 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676344860 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676357104 The app I chose was SnapType. This app allows you too take a photo of a worksheet or anything like that and it pulls it right up to where students can type on it. This would assist students who struggle with writing. ]]> 2020-08-11 21:41:10 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676357104 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676446062 I chose a student that struggled with reading. I felt frustrated for the child. I would never want one of my students to feel that their peers are ahead or that they are not capable of learning. I know that has to hurt their confidence and self- esteem. ]]> 2020-08-11 23:31:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676446062 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676451393 I would love to incorporate the office lens app into my classroom. I could allow my students to use there phones, classroom ipads, and headphones. They would scan the documents and have them read aloud to them.]]> 2020-08-11 23:38:31 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676451393 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676519845 I chose to view the attention problem simulation.  I was diagnosed with ADD in grade school and this simulation depicted perfectly what it sounds/feels like.  It is important to be step into the shoes of students who might struggle with these areas.  Additionally, it can help support different strategies to implement in lessons so they can effectively grasp the information.

This app would be beneficial because it would not be limited to a specific subject. Rather, it would be utilized during ELA and creating a story map, drawing pictures to represent a word problem, or creating pictures to denote each step of the water cycle. It would cater to students who have dyslexia, language barriers, or simply visual learners. This app fosters creativity and encourages learners to not "think inside the lines".]]> 2020-08-12 01:05:53 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676529171 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676552008 During the simulation, it was very frustrating trying to type each sentence with the letters continuing to change. I was amazed to see Lucy’s perspective about her writing issues and how she continued to work hard in order to overcome her barriers. Lucy mentioned that writing in cursive helped her get her ideas down on paper quicker and using a graphic organizer helped her map out her thoughts as well.]]> 2020-08-12 01:30:00 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676552008 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676553143 I can have my students create a circuit workout using the app "Doodle Buddy" in my Physical Education class. This will allow students to combine different exercises that they had learned into a circuit. They can draw and use the stickers in order to show which way the circuit flows and which exercise is expected at each station.]]> 2020-08-12 01:31:08 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676553143 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676569610 The app I chose was Draw and Tell. This allows students to be creative as they draw and tell their very own story. Working with younger students, it still may be difficult for them to write their ideas out on paper. Therefore, by using this app, students have the opportunity to express their ideas in a more efficient way for their age.]]> 2020-08-12 01:49:03 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676569610 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676655604 I was frustrated while completing the simulation. For Lucy to overcome her barriers is amazing because I am somewhat a grown up and I couldn't stay focused on the simulation and I have a better understanding of the frustrations that students have to deal with. ]]> 2020-08-12 03:26:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676655604 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676660572 One app that I can envision using with my students is Office Lens. It would be a really great tool for students with really poor vision. Students with poor vision would be able to take a picture of documents and then modify the settings so that it is easier for them to see and read the document and they can also have the app read the document to them. ]]> 2020-08-12 03:32:49 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676660572 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676676903 While completing the Lucy task I was extremely frustrated completing the simulation. No matter how slow I typed or how precise I was the words still came out wrong and I kept having to edit and fix and them time was up. I think the face that Lucy was able to overcome her barriers by using cursive is amazing. I never would have thought cursive would make that big of a difference, but once she explained how it helped her it made total sense.]]> 2020-08-12 03:52:34 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676676903 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676697000 The app I chose was Snap Type. The reason I chose this app was because students can easily take a picture of their worksheet and then type onto it from there. This app would be great for the students who have trouble writing. It really stuck out to me because I just watched a video about Lucy struggling to write and I was thinking of other ways to help my first grade students besides cursive.]]> 2020-08-12 04:19:00 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676697000 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676717699 I was personally getting very aggravated and impatient when attempting to type the sentences within the simulation. Each time that I would type something new, something else would change automatically. I thought I was typing badly at first or that my computer was messing up but then I realized that it was a part of the simulation. I now understand how students feel when they have difficulty writing. ]]> 2020-08-12 04:46:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676717699 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676722947 It was very frustrating to me trying to type but random letters showing up. I see how this could discourage a child from even trying.  Lucy mentioned that writing in cursive helped her get her ideas down on paper quicker and i never thought about it like that. ]]> 2020-08-12 04:54:03 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676722947 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676726546 The app that stood out to me was Draw and tell because i am a Early childhood major and the younger students have a hard time drawing really well. I would still make them draw their own pictures regularly but this would be a fun alternative. ]]> 2020-08-12 04:59:01 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676726546 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676776249 Yes, I was very frustrated while completing the simulation. It was definitely a learning experience that has opened my eyes. This was discouraging because as I typed, the letters would change, not appear, or added too many. Lucy is a strong, positive individual and I'm so happy that she overcame her barriers. I now understand what it's like to have difficulty when writing.]]> 2020-08-12 06:14:32 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676776249 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676784195 I chose the app "clips". This app was interesting and exciting to me because it seemed user-friendly and engaging for students. I envision using it as a great tool to narrate a story or biography of the student's choosing, like the tutorial. This app incorporates sound, images, text, and effects that can provide many uses for a variety of educational material.]]> 2020-08-12 06:26:09 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/676784195 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/677024306 I chose the Draw and Tell app. I chose this because as a child, I did not have any artistic ability so this will help students express their thoughts and for there to be another way for them to do their work.

]]> 2020-08-12 13:05:05 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/677024306 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/677053493 The app that I would most like to incorporate into my classroom would be "Fractions--Math Learning Center." As a student, I always struggled with fractions and I still do sometimes. I think that having students use the app would be an interactive and fun way for them to learn their fractions. I know if I had this as a student, I would love it!]]> 2020-08-12 13:23:18 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/677053493 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/677230154 I chose the simulation that emulated what it's like to struggle with writing, and it was very eye opening. I've seen many people call certain students "lazy", or just assume they're not trying hard enough. However, so many times these accusations are inaccurate, and students just need assistance or support from AT. As someone who's never struggled with writing, it was very beneficial for me to actually feel what it's like to want to write something one way, but then have it turn out entirely wrong, despite my best efforts. ]]> 2020-08-12 15:02:32 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/677230154 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/677253591 This past spring semester I spent time with a student who really struggled with writing. He could relay accurate information to me verbally, but struggled to convey those same thoughts on paper; his writing often became a jumbled mess. I think the app "Mod Math" could have helped tremendously! I like that Mod Math serves as an alternative to the traditional pencil and paper way of solving problems; this could serve a multitude of purposes, namely those who struggle with any type of writing task while engaging in mathematic tasks. ]]> 2020-08-12 15:14:57 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/677253591 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/677392621 I also chose the student that struggles with reading. I would have felt frustrated and not fully understood. I never understood this growing up and this is great insight as a teacher.

I think this would be really helpful in my classrooms--especially with remote learning. It would also be super helpful with worksheets. I could just take a picture of it and have them type their answers in the blanks and submit their work to me. I like the idea of conserving paper.]]> 2020-08-12 16:41:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/677424314 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/677437241 I chose the student with attention issues because that seems to be what I encounter most often, I wasn't that frustr]]> 2020-08-12 16:49:02 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/677437241 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/678830466 I chose a student with attention issues. It was very frustrating and confusing to listen to multiple voices talking at once while trying to listen to instructions. Towards the end, I had to stop the stimulation because it was overwhelming me as I completed it. I can really empathize with a student in how they perceive information and process it with attention processing problems.]]> 2020-08-13 15:10:21 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/678830466 https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/678853551 The app I most envision using in my own classroom is Office Lens. The massive amounts of possibilities that one has with the app are endless. From using with 504 accommodations requiring read alounds to ELLs that require having a bilingual dictionary, there are many uses of this assistive technology that could be very helpful in classrooms.]]> 2020-08-13 15:21:53 UTC https://padlet.com/ipadtraining/E3Fall2020/wish/678853551
