         Microsoft Word, some may call it their best friend and theories may call it their enemy. However to me it is the tool I use to get me through school, it helps me out so much, its a space for me to put thoughts down without wasting paper, or it is there for me to type out my papers. I have learned so many quick techniques to use while writing papers. Shortcuts that can ultimately help in the long run when it comes to waiting till the last miniute for an assignment. Watching my teachers use word was somewhat intruiging because I got to see the different techniques they used and how they were taught to use this program. Some of my teachers were quite experienced when it came to using it.                

      I haven't had to use copyright yet, but I am sure that I will be using it a lot in the future and I can imagine that it will be very difficult. I can except I will have to use it on lots of lesson plans and test/quizzes in the future for my students. I remember previous teacher talking to me about and saying how pretty much everything they do or use today they have to do some sort of report to submit and have to copyright many things. With fair use of materials I can imagine how annoying it must be to do every little thing from using pictures to uploading things online for your students. As a teacher I am going to have to be very patient and calm when working on things that need to be copyrighting or I may not even use anything that needs to be copyrighted. That would be a very lazy teacher, so I probably will just have to suck it up and make things for my students.

                                                                 

        I don't want to sound to confident but I am pretty tech savvy with twitter, so I have yet to learn anything new yet. But my personal learning I have noticed that I am following amazing accounts that I can actually learn things from them. In the future I will be able to incorporate word and twitter to make students use only 140 characters to type things up on word, which I think will be very fun!
