1. So far, twitter has shown me that there is a whole different side to twitter that I did not even know existed. I follow a lot of educational accounts and pages like NASA, that post interesting facts and new scientific information. From these, I have seen posts from teachers about interesting things that they are doing in their classroom as well as some of their student's work. From just the general education pages, I see posts about interesting tools teacher's can use in their classroom. This includes programs like Edmodo and Kahoot as well as updates to these applications and ways to maximize the usage of these programs. The benefit of using Twitter is that it is so up to date on everything. Nowadays, pretty much every company has a twitter account that posts about their product. In addition to this, teachers post and share with each other their experiences and things they are doing in their classroom; from these they are able to interact with each other.
2. I do not have much yet to my webpage, however, I am happy with what I have at the moment. I made sure everything that I put into my webpage is going to be useful for students and their parents. Another important element of my webpage is the design and layout of everything. I wanted to make it super user-friendly so everything could easily be found.

3. From working on Diigo in class I have actually downloaded it for my own personal use. It is such a useful tool and I use it to bookmark things for some of my classes and it has really helped me to stay on top of my work. I know when I start teaching it is something that can be super useful for me. I think it would be even more beneficial in the future because I can organize all of my lesson plans and pages that I found useful, as well as seeing other teacher's saved pages.
