 Hello,

     I am not the biggest fan of distanced learning as I am more of an in person learner. The distanced learning makes it easier to procrastinate and be lazy because you aren't in the actual class. I do like being able to be home and do work but at the same time I enjoy going to campus and walking around. As a teacher i will try more interactive lessons with the students to try and keep their attention and keep it fun for them. Distant learning is harder than in person to me because you aren't given the resources like you are with in person with having interaction with classmates and the teacher, Zoom just doesn't fill that void for me.

    Open educational resources are different resources used in educational settings. They are made to help students and even teachers further their education and use different types of programs to learn more. OER's are made to be available to anyone under a Creative Commons license to use for their benefit. The article I found talks about OER's being a resource used to fuel collaboration and useful when coming up with your own practices.  The article also shares the best ways to find the best OER's and even gives examples. ARTICLE

The powerpoint assignments taught me a lot I did not know. Especially the interactive one which taught me how to make Powerpoints fun. I enjoyed making a game and it was the more invested i'd been in an assignment. I didn't really have any problems with either assignment other than the speaking part of Assignment 4 because I kept messing up! I had to redo it multiple times and it was a pain because I kept messing up my speech. I can improve by venturing out and challenging myself more next time on both assignments to better myself and my skills.
