  • You’re on an incessant search for tech tools (not tech toys) that will help students learn more efficiently, creatively, and collaboratively. Without a doubt, the learning objectives are the primary focus and educational technology is secondary.

      This was one of my favorite descriptions because of all of the tools that we have learned about during the course. I think at one point I was feeling a little overwhelmed by being exposed to so many new platforms and tools for learning. However, as I have continued to learn more, I feel that I am able to look at social media tools more critically and better imagine the learning possibilities that they might lead to. I agree these tools can exist to help students work more effectively, creatively and collaboratively, but I also think they increase motivation and interest when students are allowed to try new things. The point does need to be on the learning though. The technology is only there to enhance and deepen the experience. Clark Masters
