Creative Communicator:
I communicate effectively and express myself creatively using different tools, styles, formats, and digital media.
EdTech Standards

Use technology tools (e.g., multimedia authoring, presentation, web tools, digital cameras, scanners) for individual and collaborative writing, communication, and publishing activities to create knowledge products for audiences inside and outside the classroom.
Utah Core Standards
Standard 6
The students will understand how a healthy diet and exercise can increase the likelihood of physical and mental wellness
I like using this tool. It is easy to use and you are able to see if students are understanding the concept. I used this tool for a health related class. The question I posed was... "What are 3 things I can do to live a healthy lifestyle?" This question gives students the opportunity to think about what they can personally do in their day to day life. An example of what the students could put as their answers are, Exercise for 60 min., Eat a healthy breakfast, Only have 1 hour of screen time. As students come up with answers of what they can do, they are more likely to do what they have answered.This tool is very easy to use for teachers and students. Students could also see what their peers say and then are able to use what they have said to create a healthier lifestyle and broaden their perspective. The tools listed above relate to the tool for these reasons. ISTE: the students are communicating using this tool to express what they believe will create a healthy lifestyle for them. EdTech: They are using a web tool to communicate and create knowledge for those around them.
Utah Core Standards: Students are learning about how to have a healthy diet and exercise and expressing what they have learned. This tool will definitely be one that I consider using in my classroom so that my students can express what they have learned.
