      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 site has got some great articles on intergrating technology in the classroom. This one in particular gives some useful tips when setting up your classroom instruction.

    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.

What is the future of technology in education? | Teacher Network | Guardian Professional - 0 views

  • School classrooms are going to change
  • The cloud can also encourage independent learning.
  • Rather than being 'taught' students can learn independently and in their own way
    • Sadie Butts
       
      I still believe that the influence of an educator is vital in every student's life, and success in learning.

  • This of course means the role of the teacher will change.
  • They could be in the same room or in different countries
    • Sadie Butts
       
      Important knowledge that is gained in the classroom is learning to communicate in person. Students will learn by the teacher's example, along with their interactions with peers within the classrooms.
  • By its very nature, technology changes at a fast pace and making it accessible to pupils, teachers and other stakeholders is an ongoing challenge.
    • Ashleigh Clark
       
      Not every person has access to technology now days because it costs money.
  • Schools of the future could have a traditional cohort of students, as well as online only students who live across the country or even the world. Things are already starting to move this way with the emergence of massive open online courses (MOOCs).
    • Ashleigh Clark
       
      I feel that in the future there will be more online schools and that in the actual classroom students and teachers will be more interactive with each other.
  • the future of technology in education is the cloud.
  • r than being 'taught' students can learn independently and i
  • Teachers can use the cloud to set, collect and grade work online. Students will have instant access to grades, comments and work via a computer, smartphone or tablet.
    • Ashleigh Clark
       
      This just shows all the ways the cloud can be used for teachers and even students.
  • We don't know what will be the current technology in another four. Perhaps it will be wearable devices such as Google Glass, although I suspect that tablets will still be used in education.
    • Ashleigh Clark
       
      This just shows everyone how technology is growing so fast and how it effects (or will) education and other jobs as well.

    I like this article because they argue what the future technology in education will be for the future.

Creating an Ultra-Flexible Learning Space -- THE Journal - 1 views

  •  
    I found this article very interesting! The classroom was more like an office. The students have their own personal learning desks and cubicles. I think that learning will be maximized when each students individual needs are met, and they are in this classroom Designers of the Minnesota School of Environmental Studies (SES) were years ahead of the curve when it came to creating collaborative classrooms that would one day accommodate learning technologies that in 1995 had yet to be conceived--let alone developed and marketed to the educational sector.

    This article was interesting for me to read being a teacher! I think that it's very cool that they have students desks look more like offices. This school is called the "Zoo School" and it serves 400 students in the 11th and 12th grade. They get to customize their workstations like employees do at work! They don't get taught at their desks they all get back together and sit at a longer table much like college and learn that way! I think this is neat and a different idea! They said in their article that the students were "thriving here" so I think they have caught on to something wonderful!

How Does Technology Facilitate Learning? | Education.com - 0 views

  • With every other technology, including computers, educators recognized its importance and debated how to apply each nascent commercial technology for educational purposes
  • Unfortunately, educators have almost always tried to use technologies to teach students in the same ways that teachers had always taught.
  • computers as productivity tools

  • students should teach the computer or use the technology to represent what they know rather than memorizing what teachers and textbooks tell them.

      I would like this to fit into my education model. I think this statement reflects constructiveness.

Ideas for Seventh Grade English to study - 1 views

  •  
    I checked this out just to see what potentials for novels and plays for seventh graders to study. Just a thought, why do English teachers keep teaching the same old books? Some of the stuff that I found was stuff that I was taught back when I was all three levels of school. Isn't time to update the reading list to stuff that has be written in last 20 years or even more recent instead of stuff that is outdated by like 50 or 100 years ago. I can't complain about Mark Twain though. I do like his writing. But Julie and the Wolves, The Outsiders, The Giver?
