What is Curation?
Curation is the assembling, managing, organizing and preserving some type of a collection. There are many different type of curators including curators of: art galleries, museums, scientists, or a collection of digital assets. For the sake of this tech task online curation is how we collect, organize, or present the online data that we access online.
How I Organize my online life?
The two main ways that I organize my online life is through my laptop and and iPhone. On my laptop I have all of the main websites that I use bookmarked so that I can access them easier. I have all of my email accounts, social media, school websites (Google Plus or Google Drive for example), and other websites that I frequently visit. Since I started bookmarking all of these websites last year I have felt that I am way more organized and on top of things. I also find that I visit these sites more often. On my iPhone I also have a lot of the same websites or apps on my phone. I would consider my primary online organizer. I have all of my social media on my phone as well as all of my emails on my phone. I enjoy following sports and fantasy sports so all of these are on my phone as well.
Curation and in my Future Classroom?
One app that I will try and use in my classroom is Google Drive. I think by being able to post assignments and resources online for my students to access will be an easy organizer. It makes it easy for me as a teacher to put them all in one spot that all of my students can access. Also, it will be very convenient for my students to be able to access this important information from any computer that has access to the internet. Another app that I will consider using in my classroom is a classroom blog. This is a nice way to have students submit assignments or keep journals.
