This is an older article. I have used the response clickers in classrooms before and I find them to be extremely effective. They can be integrated to the SMART board and students can use them for f...

      I thought this article was very interesting. There are some helpful hint to sharing technology with the students. The point that stood out for me was that we as educators need to give the children the tools they need to have good hands on experiences to enhance their learning.

    This article gives great insight into what can actually be accomplished in an elementary school setting. I thought this article was interesting and informative.

    I liked this article because it had cute ideas for integrating technology into early education. Its hard as an early childhood major to use technology cause you do not want to affect their development or make class more difficult, but i liked these ideas.

    I think as an Early Childhood Major it is hard to incorporate technology in the classroom not only because you don't want to affect their development but, I know that when I was in K-3 we went to a computer lab had completely different lessons that we did in a classroom. It related to the lessons but, it was taught by a different teacher.

    I really loved this article. Not only did it talk about technology for classrooms, but it gave real examples of how it was being used in schools. It is difficult sometimes to be creative but getting feedback and seeing how others are using it, can be extremely helpful! As I am on my way to earning my ECE degree, I look for these types of examples to start to get ideas for my own classroom and how I will work with students.

    I loved the example about the teacher who would comment on all of the students' blogs, and by the end of the year, the students could carry the discussions on their own. That just shows us as educators that students do have the ability to learn technology.

    This was very interesting. I found it a little funny when I saw the word relax but it is true that if you let students have the feeling that these valuable tools are theirs then they will take care of them. I feel for most children, who are taught to be careful with valuable things, this will be the case. Although, there are some kids who are never taught that nor taught respect for others things because they are just taught to be selfish. As a teacher this would be you job to show them that they need to care for valuable things and respect others property along with your own.

    I thought this article was very interesting. Students do have the ability to continue the use of technology with out the guidance of teachers, as this article points out.

Teaching Today | How-To Articles | Cell Phones in the Classroom - 1 views

  •  
    This article talks about whether or not to use cell phones in the middle school classroom. It talks about the good and the bad and ways teachers can creatively use cell phones for learning tools.
  •  
    Cell phones have become a ubiquitous accessory of high school students since the late 1990s. Initially banned by schools as an unnecessary distraction, events such as the Columbine tragedy and the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 have made most districts reconsider the place of cell phones in middle and high schools.
  •  
    I think that cell phones can be used as a tool, but they are not always appropriate. Some children don't have cell phones so in that situation, children can tend to feel left out if a teacher decides to use a phone as a tool. From my perspective, I most likely will leave cell phones out of my plans for the classroom and use other tools such as remote clickers and things of that nature that I provide for the students.
