Free Technology for Teachers: Teaching in a 1:1 Environment in Maine - Guest Post - 1 views

  • The trap too many of us fall in to with technology is that we’re just doing the same things we’ve always done, except now there’s a computer involved. Sure, there are some “21st Century Skills” that students achieve (often times we falsely assume through osmosis), but at the end of the day, showing video clips on Youtube is no different than popping a video in the old VCR.

Computers in schools: money well-spent, Concordia University study says - 0 views

  • If the technology is used solely as a content provider - for example, if iPads are used as alternatives to books - then there won't be any positive impact, he said.

Teacher Reviews New Student Participation App | Edutopia - 1 views

  •  
    From the post: "One challenge teachers face is requiring and enabling every student an equal opportunity to ask and respond to questions during class. A new web-based classroom tool called GoSoapBox is one possible solution to this problem. With GoSoapBox, students can simultaneously interact with the class in real time as well as participating with any Internet connected device. I am currently accessing GoSoapBox with my classroom set of iPod Touches; however, the app will run on laptops, notebooks, iPads or other mobile devices."
