    This article talks a lot about having laptops instead of desktops. I think this is one way that Henrico County stands out...because of our lapotp initiative. However...are we using the technology to benefit the students the best that we can?

      I think this statement is so true. So many people are afraid to experiment and try new things unless there is hard evidence that supports the idea.
  • using hand-held devices in the classroom can improve students’ motivation, engagement, conceptual understanding, and problem-solving skills.

      I tend to agree with this statement but I think there needs to be some boundaries with it all.

  • An interesting topic came up today within Search Mojo regarding the idea of online transparency and self-policing. Obviously, ethics comes in to play in self-policing. Whose ethics? That’s the question. Who are you to say what is and is not ethical in how I approach and execute things online?

    I read one of Dr. Richardson's responses to a post and she was talking about self-policing so I wanted to explore that a little more. I think this article is fueled by emotions from a family issue, but it does ask some good questions!

    This article is written by a gentleman who is for technology, however, he is addressing the four major reasons he has found for reasons people oppose technology. I was actually surprised at the four he narrowed it down to and summarized. Never really thought about most of them as reasons for NOT wanting technology integration! Interesting!

  • The verdict is out; the Promethean Board is the future of education. As adaptable and upgradeable as the computer it is linked to, expect the Promethean board to change the face of education in classrooms across the world for the next years to come.

      I think this is a strong statement considering we have all discussed knowing people who don't use the board effectively!

    This article talks about technology integration taking a backseat since Obama has been in office. This person is definitely in favor of getting technology integration as a priority. They even gave ways that people can speak out in favor of it!

    Hey guys...I found this site to be very helpful, especially for those parents who have absolutely NO CLUE what is going on even if they are looking at their child's acivity. Felt this tied into our blogging this week...but this is more geared to the drug side of technology use (which is so depressing)

#Vanmeter Schools Transforming the Educational System: Student Post- "It is Exciting to... - 1 views

shared by Kate Puschak on 02 Jun 10 - Cached
  • But this year, my junior year, that all changed. No, Van Meter Community High School didn’t get a new lunch menu. It began the one to one program and entrusted its students with their own personal MAC laptops. More importantly though, our teachers and administrators gave us the opportunity to be apart of what has become the beginning of an educational movement! Similar to a tidal wave to the face or a nice cold Coca Cola on a hot, Iowa summer day, students at Van Meter felt the refreshing impact that the computers had on us. Suddenly, I was excited to come to school again. I wanted to see what our teachers could do with the new technology handed to them and I was eager to learn something. What a crazy thought! No longer was I dragging my feet and wondering when oh when would that bell finally ring to signal it was 3:15.

    I thought this was just a friendly reminder how lucky Henrico County is to have so much technology at its fingertips!!!

      I thought that this was such a bold statement. That Web 2.0 will have a greater impact than the printing press. This comment really got me thinking...could this author be right? What are your thoughts?
  • I believe that the read/write Web, or what we are calling Web 2.0, will culturally, socially, intellectually, and politically have a greater impact than the advent of the printing press.
