Hi! My name is Molly Jones. I am a sophomore studying elementary education. Here at Florida State, I am a member of the Gamma Phi Beta sorority and I love it. I am from Fort Lauderdale, FL, and I have known I have wanted to be a teacher since I was 4 years old as my mom and grandma are both teachers. After graduation, I want to get my masters in leadership and hopefully one day be able to become a principal after many years of experience teaching in the classroom.
In an education setting, I've used technology quite a lot. In middle and high school, I used a Chrome Book my school provided me with and we used google docs, slideshows, and spreadsheets. When COVID hit, we used google hangouts and zoom to still be connected and have class virtually. I also have my own personal Macbook that I use for assignments and to surf the web as well. Here at FSU, we use canvas to turn in our assignments and Microsoft word and excel to do assignments on.
As for my PLN, I use lots of resources to help support my learning goals. I listen to many different podcasts that help to motivate me to get my work done and become a successful as a teacher. I also follow teacher influencer's on TikTok that provide inspiration for classrooms and lesson plans as well as tips and tricks on how to successfully manage a classroom. I also love to go to Strozier because it helps me focus more than in my apartment. In addition to these, over the summer I work at a preschool where I always learn so much from my coworkers and get so much experience.
Hi Molly, I love Fort Lauderdale as me and my friends would sometimes go for spring break! Its really cool you've known what you want to do since such a young age. Ive always wanted to be a pilot since i was about 6 and i'm so happy i know what i want to do. Ive also used technology quite a bit in learning due to covid.
