II. What Types of Feeds and Why
When I was trying to decide what types of feeds I wanted to subscribe too, I was thinking of keywords that would pertain to my field the best. As a future teacher, it was important for me to find subscriptions that had articles related to my future career. Particularly, with so many issues going on in the field of education right now, I really wanted to read up on them. The first feed I subscribed to was Forbes. When I searched "education", Forbes has a ton of stuff that came up regarding it. They had a few articles that touched on different point-of-views. For example, the article "Why Our Education System is Ripe for Disruption", really stood out for me. I thoroughly enjoyed the read! I also chose the NY Times to subscribe too. They had a lot of great articles related to "education and teaching". Instead of providing possible solutions or viewpoints, like Forbes, they wrote on articles about specific schools, locations, or states. I liked that because it didn't just give you a biased-opinion. The NY Times told stories about what was happening in education around the world! I also found only one article on the Guardian, but it was one of my favorite. It provided an inside look to a lady that is a classroom mentor in a English class. As a strive to be a future English teacher helpful hints, points-of-view and identification of potential issues or problems that may arise are all very helpful to me!
