     The term copyright to me has always meant anything that is created by someone and published by that person, can not be used as another person's own words. This meaning, that people would have to cite these publications when using them in any form. Fair use, to my knowledge, is the ability to use these publications as previously stated without citing them in certain scenarios such as critiquing them. As a teacher, copyright is important when it comes to the creation of my tests and exams for my class, such that other teachers would be encouraged to make their own instructional items rather than take mine. Students would also be advised against using other classmates' work as this is plagiarism and would go against the "copyright" that is created when students turn in their own work.      Academic dishonesty is a subject that feels to have been around forever, or at least as long as I have been in school. My graduating class had 10 different people kicke...

      My first real experience with Microsoft Word was in 6th grade. This is when I became Microsoft Word certified, along with Excel, and Powerpoint. So, in terms of my experience with Microsoft Word, I would say I am pretty well-versed. I prefer to use Google Docs, however, when I am on the move and away from my main desktop computer. Such as now, when I am back home instead of at FSU because I am quarantining, so if I had an assignment to work on that required a word processing software, it would be Google Docs, so that I can work on it and save it to the Google cloud.      Personally, the standard that stood out to me the most was 2.1.

I believe this sits with me as the best one because this is how I see myself as a future educator. I think my career in teaching and life in general would both become incredibly b...

Introduction to Me

       My name is Jake Bucher, and I am a Psychology major at FSU with a minor in Education. I have three dogs, their names are Waffles, Max, and Benny. My interests include Marvel, Star Wars, DC and LEGO. A weird hobby of mine is that I like to birdwatch and go birding. I actually have a wildlife photography account on Instagram called Jakeswildlifephotography.      Personally, I have not participated in many educational settings besides attending school itself. While in college, I have mostly used Canvas, along with Zoom and Flipgrid. However, in high school, when covid first started, I had to use Microsoft Teams, so I have a decent expertise in that department. I am also Microsoft certified in Word, Powerpoint, and Excel, for both the years of 2013 and 2016. I have also created a multitude of websites using Weebly and Wixsite.      The only real learning networks I use are the resources that are given to me by my professors. Although,...
