Universal Design for Learning and Digital Citizenship

There were three very resourceful technology tools that were covered in Module 3 of  ETEC 4810. Universal Design for Learning is one of those technology tools and it helps teachers think more intensely about their lessons and how they can improve them. I will use Universal Design for Learning in my future classroom one day to help me make assessments, set goals, and provide multiple means of engagement, representation, and action and expression. A challenge that should be considered when thinking about Universal Design for Learning is that it could be challenging to meet all of the guidelines that come with this technology tool. All in all I think this is a great technology tool that can influence many great lessons for teachers today.
Another technology tool that was discussed was Prezi. Prezi is a great way to get information across in a creative way. In this module, Prezi was used to show information about digital citizenship. I could use this technology tool in my future classroom as a way to make a lesson creative and get students involved in learning about the information. The students can also use Prezi to create presentations for the class when they are assigned. There is one challenge that comes with Prezi though. Occasionally, Prezi will not work on certain computers, especially if the computers are not updated. So, it may be challenging to use it or to present a Prezi presentation at times.
The final technology tool that I want to talk about from this module is Digital Citizenship. Digital Citizenship provides information about digital requirements and safety when using digital resources. I could use this technology tool in my future classroom to help students understand the safety and security of using digital resources. The one challenge that may come with this technology tool would be students taking the information the wrong way and not following the guidelines or reading all of the information.
These three technology tools are great ways to enhance lesson and classroom performance.
