Atomic Learning

      Atomic Learning is a website dedicated specifically to teachers that provides resources and information on incorporating technology into the classroom. It includes several common core planning tools, software training lecture videos, and helpful tips for teachers to ensure they understand basic technological lesson plans. Through this site, teachers can sign up for an Atomic Catalyst course, which is set up online, but also provides a comprehensive video lesson every week that explains technology that is useful in the classroom. There are several different courses available, and they all last for six weeks. Even though these lessons aren't completely free, they give teachers the experience they need to be able to use technology, if they have little prior knowledge.
    I believe Atomic Learning would be very beneficial for me as a beginning teacher. Even though I am currently enrolled in several technology classes, I will not be able to learn everything I need to know for my class. This way I can develop more lessons using technology and feel confident with my technological abilities.
     Although Atomic Learning was created for educators, it can also be helpful for students. If students are having a hard time learning how to use different technology programs, they can sign up for a class on that program and learn more information about it. Then, they can have this information to be able to use this program in the future.
      Atomic Learning uses the ISTE-NETS S and ISTE-NETS T standards. The site enables teachers to be able to model digital age work and learning, promote and model digital citizenship and responsibility, and engage in professional growth and leadership. It also provides students with the knowledge necessary to use technology operations and concepts, which is one vital standard students need.
