Summary of Personal Learning- We Became Artists
Enjoy the rap made by my and Mingyeong, and scroll down for a lyric analysis.
Each verse came in the order we learned things and tried to really talk about the major things we did learn in this course. Mingyeong has a blog post similar going over her lyrics so check that out as well. Overall this class was a lot of fun and we learned a lot. It was difficult to fit everything we learned in one song, but I believe we got a big portion of it. Thank You!
Intro: Maybe
This is what we learned about technology in education from Katia, along with our classmates. Brought to you by Gledi and Mingyeong, #EDTC300.
Verse 1: Intro to the class
First day of class got us really excited, introducing ourselves feeling kinda frightened. Meeting new people through our zoom call in the confusing weather feeling like fall.It all went really smoothly with the power of technology in the late afternoon. We got introduced to discord, twitter, blogs. It was all really cool, made me finally enjoy school. #Edtc300 is where it’s at along with our favorite the sask ed chat. Talking about important topics every teacher should know, gotta thank Christopherson for being an amazing host ya know. Next up learning how to create our own website and all its tools, with perfect explanations and demonstrations. Learning how to add pages, widgets, menus and posts adding photos with credits to their host. Learning about Creative commons and its use which at first had me super confused. Utilizing feedly inoreader and tweetdeck sharing it all with peers hopes on getting the blue cheque. Learning about new chrome extensions so many that my ad logarithms started mentioning it.

Chorus: Catchy chorus ties all together
Technology is where it’s attttt,/ nevermind the false news that the earth is flatttt/
Gotta pay attention to all the botssss/, learning digital literature my at all costttt/
It’s easy to get lost on the internetttt/, teaching our students to not fall for scammy adddd/
Teach them how to be respectfulllll/, while ofcourse always staying carefulllll./
Verse 2: Digital technology in classrooms. Digital identity and stuff
Careful we gotta stay no matter the day/ our online identity is at risk everyday. What is it though/, is it important/, Katia taught us through our class content/. We feel like we got our citizenship/, the digital one/, ready to teach our students when the time has come/. With the internet we got the power to do what we want/, showcasing our talents with the click of a button/. That is where the power of social media comes into play/ as Wesch said we saw the Soulja Boy dance no matter the day./
But We still need to be carefullll/ creepsss are everwhereee/ gonna teach students about it/ and show that we careeee/. Just remember that

Verse 3: Being safe on digital world
- Although technology can be helpful/, we have to be mindful/
- Small mistakes can turn into bigger mishap/, just like how Amanda Todd got caught in a trap/
- We learned to use technology correctly/, focusing on being a respectful digital citizen especially/
- Through digital sleuthing each other on our devices/, we were able to gain some advices:/
- Be mindful of what you say/, because you could be the next prey/,
- Watch out for trolls and scammers/, disguised with girls so glamour,/
- And three/, be careful of what you post/, because it’ll last for eternity at most/
- We can fact-check articles with PolitiFact,/ to make sure that we have our sources in check/
- We also talked about cyberbullying and its effects/, don’t treat people on social media as objects/
- Because what you say is more than just texts and pranks/, tell me, would you really send the same thing to your gramps?/
