     I am definitely on the side of being able to access technology rather than being on the side that is not able to access technology. I think digital divide can definitely have a substantial impact in my future classroom between my students. If I have two students on opposite ends of the digital divide, without a doubt the student that has access is going to be out in a better position to succeed. What I would try to do to address the situation is get a grant for technology is my classroom, specifically a grant that lets me lend out iPads for each of my students to have for the year/semester/term. I have this in my EDF2085 class right now and it helps put all the students on equal playing field.

     I never know that I can record my voice and how to record slide shows and in general, make it play automatically from opening the file. I found the assignment at first a tad difficult having to record my voice and recording the show in general. I wasn't sure at first what or even why I had to record the whole show but after learning about it I can see why I needed to do it. I think I can improve on the aesthetic design of my PowerPoint mostly, I still find it a tad hard to get a really good design for my PowerPoint presentations.
