  • Forget about tracking software: You are the most effective monitoring device.

      Maria, I'm guilty of that! I tend to hand my phone to my daughter so easily.

    I do that too, Martha. I am getting better though. I hand over my iPad to my 6 years old often. On it I only have installed apps that are appropriate for her. Her school had a very nicely put together list of apps that are available either free of cost or at a minimum. Sharing the list here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AtmIIa0t-oLTdGVucnUxMUVMTUdmbWE5a0RrYTJtb1E#gid=0

    "New Teacher Survival Guide: Technology in the Classroom " (video)
  •  
    As we wrap up the week's topic of Survival, I found an excellent video article. It covers the one thing that new teachers fear more than "Walkers," six-graders!

The comment about anticipation of barriers when implementing new technology in the classroom hits home for me.I have had my share of issues with technology in the past.This is why it is so important to do a dry run before the actual presentation because things can go wrong no matter how prepared you are. Always have a back up plan as a last resort.
