1st Field Experience Activity/Time

Date(s)

PSC/ISTE Standard(s)

Total time: 5 hours

I created a website using the multimedia and design skill, hand
coding. This was a difficult task for me. In fact, I had to complete it
multiple times before I had success. I used a variety of web-based
resources such as YouTube step-by-step instructions in an attempt to
walk me through the process.

This field experience can impact faculty
development and student improvement. I
can now take my knowledge of
handcoding and use it to instruct others
on its usage. I am also able to use
YouTube and other online sites to help
with troubleshooting. I can share these
resources with students and fellow
teachers.
