      Victoria, the youtube video was to the point and definitely an eye opener to how much the social media is being developed to communicate with the world. It is all around us in education, business and personal usage to provide us with instant feedback. I believe that social media has evolved so much that people can't live without it. We are so use to having cell phones at our fingertips that the thought of not being connected to some type of social media is inconceivable.

Online, in workshops, and even with friends, I frequently get asked What can the iPad actually do? as a sort of challenge to the worth of the device. I would rather that they ask, What can y

      This is an awesome article. It would be a lot of fun to be a reading student in school if my teacher would of implemented using an ipad or just technology in lessons. I think technology can really change how many of us not just students view reading.
  • Marivel Garcia on 03 Oct 12
     
    I love the way the question is asked by What can I actually do with the Ipad verses What can the Ipad do. Like any other type of technology tool, it is not useful if we don't understand how to utilize it. This article is great and has many inspiring ideas on how to utilize the Ipad especially if you are Reading Teacher. Awesome Website...

    I like the answers that are provided by Beth Holland regarding "Why iPads and Why Technology? So students can communicate in complex and modern ways. So students can make their thinking visible.

    Yadira, IPADs are awesome and their uses in the classroom can be uncountable. I like the format of this article/website because it provides the Learning Objectives, Projects, and a Video. I liked the one titled, "I want my students to master the concept of the story arc." Don't forget to check out the video! This is a great resource to share with others! Thanks for sharing!

    Wow, Dipity is really awesome! I was looking at the timeline for Mr. Steve Jobs and it's very well done. Dipity can be used for doing a timeline digitally instead of doing it on a poster. There are many pros to doing it on Dipity such as been saved there for other classes to see and to be used as examples. Usually when students create a timeline on poster it get tossed away towards the end of the year or gets sent home with the students. By doing it on Dipity it stays there for many years to come.

    Totally agree for the use of Social Studies, I can use this tool for technology classes as well.

    Dipity is a great Web 2.0 technology to integrate in the classroom. It provides an excellent way to create timeline presentations.

    Yadira, this website is awesome! The students will love this website because there are numerous games that they can choose to play while learning at the same time. I really liked the educational game that's called, " Addition Flash Cards" because in this game the students practice their addition and check their answers immediately after inputting their answer. This is a great Fun Educational website to share with others! Thanks for sharing.

    Great website. I'm actually having to present to the math department on how they can incorporate tech. into their classroom this week. This site is great to show them!!
  • Victoria Lopez on 23 Sep 12
     
    This is an excellent website. I really like how it is set up to suggest web 2.0 tools according to what your learning goal is for technology implementation. It highlights key points about the website and rates its ease of use level. It organizes the Web 2.0 tools according to its purpose. For example, if I would like for my students to create books, magazines, posters, or newsletters online, this website simplifies my options by providing me with useful information on Web 2.0 tools that are available to accomplish this goal.
  • Jaime Villarreal on 23 Sep 12
     
    Thanks for sharing this website I will definitely have it as a resource to guide me in the implementation of technology into my lessons. My favorite part of the website is the table of technology tools with a description, example and level of difficulty. The method of organizing tools in a table allows me to have tools in an accessible format that will motivate me to use them rather than spending valuable time looking for resources and information on how to use them in separate places. This website provides additional tutorials as well that can provide guiding tools in the implementation of technology. I have also found very useful the following website: (http://education.ti.com/calculators/pd/US/Online-Learning/ ) from Texas Instruments that provides not only ready made lessons that implement technology but also free webinars to learn methods of implementation.

    Wow, The way EdtechTeacher.org is set up is very user friendly. The different tabs towards the top make navigation through this site very easy. There's something here for everyone, from teachers to school leaders who are looking for ways to incorporate more technology in their campus. I really liked and found interesting the tab that reads, "Teaching with Technology/Innovate projects & Lessons". There I was able to find numerous ideas of lessons and projects using technology. This provides a valuable resource to look into different project ideas. Great Website. Thank you for sharing! Also check this website out when you get a chance. (http://www.p21.org/)

    This website has so much information! I like that it invites teachers and administrators (Professional Development Services/Leadership and Change Tabs) to contact them to come to their campus or district to help incorporate technology to the curriculum. It has numerous links for teachers to use, and shows how technology is being used in innovative ways in the classrooms. I also like that it gives students' excerpts on actual projects and lessons that have been done. It gives really good explanations and justifications of the use of technology in the classroom. In checking out the various sites it gives, I came up with this one that I really liked http://www.4teachers.org/. Check it out, it gives you many resources for your classroom, and the blog section gives you many more websites that are very useful for teachers in all levels.

    This particular site is perfect. As a reading language arts teacher I am constantly looking for ways to enhance my lessons and make them hands on. I found the Digital Storytelling ideas to be extremely useful. I have personally utilized the Comiclife and Storybird in my classroom. By using Comiclife, my students were able to create their own comic strip stories for a Figurative Language lesson and they were able to bring there lesson to live. I have also used Storybird and this is a great way to make the students bring their own creative writing to live. They are able to go through the writing process and be able to share their published work with others from all over. Love this resource...
  • nora garza on 27 Sep 12
     
    What a great website! Thanks for sharing it with us. I loved the fact that it even breaks it down into questions and you can click on the question and it will give some suggested links. I've used storybird before and the students loved it! I also found some digital story telling websites that I have never seen before. Check this link for more additional resources http://www.pbs.org/teachers.

    Wow! Impressive. This is a great website for teachers learning how to use technology in the classroom. I especially like the article called, "Beyond the Classroom with iPads & Mobile Technology". Integrating what interests our students such as ipads and iphones will provide opportunities for higher participation.

    This is a great website. I like how this website provides a variety of resources that educators can incorporate in the classroom. I like how this website provides different publications and articles that teachers can access to learn how to teach using multimedia. http://edtechteacher.org/index.php/news-a-media/publications I also like how this website offers teachers to register for free webinars on how to implement iPads and other mobile devices in the classroom. And also provides recorded links of past webinars through blackboard. http://edtechteacher.org/index.php/news-a-media/webinars

    Very first place I checked out on the website was the article on the 5 mistakes people make when using iPads in the classroom, and as someone who had this opportunity last year I can say I made most of those mistakes :) Great resource for those looking to improve technology implementation on their campus.
  • Sergio Perez on 01 Oct 12
     
    This website has so many different areas to choose from. I mainly looked at the math links and I found Real World Math. Real World Math is a website where you can find helpful lessons. Some of the lessons also deal with project based learning.
  • Maribel Gracia on 01 Oct 12
     
    I found the area of Teaching for 21st Century interesting because it states that successful integration in schools requires on going staff development. In addition, it has information on a cohort program that teachers are invited to get enroll in order to learn more about technology.
  • Sonia Aldape on 01 Oct 12
     
    This site is well rounded full of very interesting links that can help in different content areas. The areas of interest are the core subjects in my 4th grade level. It will be a great asset to the many sites in my library.

      Zoom Inventors and Inventions is an interesting website for having your students discover who invented certain items. One interesting fact I learned is that the reflectors that we find on the edge of the road were originally called "cat's eye road reflector". This website states that the inventor came up with this invention because the reflection of a cat's eyes at the side of a road kept him from driving off a hill at night..

    Valree, this website has many great resources for teachers. I specifically liked the website link titled, "Building a school website". It's basically step by step instructions on creating your own school website. I liked this link because some educators want to learn how to create their own website but don't know how.

    I was able to explore the website it's really nice, I especially like how the learner can create a story and allow others to add or help continue the story.( invention at play ) Basically, by allowing the learner to invent and think critically it will open up the doors to life time learning. http://sciencenetlinks.com/lessons/ Try this website, it also has an enormous collection of Science lessons that use the method above to enhance critical thinking. It reflects on the studies done about how learning is ensured through exploration and creativity. It is a great website that follows something similar to the PBL model. The lessons pose a question and require being inventive and exploring possible solutions.

    I really liked this website!! Our bilingual students will definitely enjoy working on spelling lists that have pictures to help them understand the meaning as well. Once students master the vocabulary/spelling list, they may test online through a website I found earlier this year. I was looking for website to create online spelling tests and I fell in love with "Benchmarks for Success: Free on-line benchmark testing". Check out their website: www.freeonlinebenchmark.com Not only can you create a test, but also print out a generated list of passcodes for students to go to this site and test online. My students love it because they don't have to wait to know their grade since they get it once they submit their responses. Oh, you may also use tests created by others since all the created material is "shared"!

Most of the strategies are no brainers, but when you are bombarded with deadlines, standardized testing, iep's, ard's, etc... it is easy to forget the really importatnt things, the students.

      This teacher sounds amazing. I can't imagine having to read the blogs of hundreds of students and responding to them all in addition to the rest of the required curriculum. As usual, there are so many outside-the-box teaching opportunities for subjects like history, english, and science, but I struggle finding those opportunities within my subject, math.

    I would definitely prefer the EPSON interactive projector. I currently use a Smartboard with a regular DELL projector, it takes a lot of classroom space to use the equipment. This new interactive projector takes minimal space and seems to work great!

      Look at the positive impact technology has in education. All administrators should take a look at this and consider.

    Wow, it's impressive how they did the 10 year study that concluded how students who were provided with technology environments very well on standardized tests. According to this, the rise on test scores and student motivation is evident when a technology environment is provided.

    This website offers up-to-date information of not only the latest educational tools but most importantly their impact in changing the learning environment. Please take a look at some of the best practices I have highlighted and share your views on what are some challenges you feel educators will experience as more technology is implemented in your curriculum.

    Jaime, thanks for the video. I really enjoyed how they viewed the 3-D lessons. Viewing the internal organs of the frog were neat. Our science students would be so much more engaged and have a better understanding identifying the organs by using a program like this. Again, great info to share.

    I-Pads are the newest popular gadgets in demand. I agree that their use in our schools has proven to be an efficient avenue for improving academic skills for students especially our most challenging students (e.g., special populations). The I-pads have also empowered our teachers to adapt technology to assist them and help support of the advancing students' learning. I am in agreement with Vincent that the price hinders the availabilty to all students. Perhaps we need to do more research on Vincent's comment about the use other tablets.

    I was excited to learn how 3D is being incorporated into the classroom. This 3D enhances students' learnign especially for the ADHD and dyslexic child. They are engaged in the learning and the students find it fun. The teacher was please with the ease of using the application in the classroom. Technology is truly fascinating.

      Brainsville comes to mind.....since it's just around the corner here in BISD.....you can demonstrate students the different inventors and inventions. This will activate students mind to start thinking of a topic for them to research and invent.

  • Sophisticated electronic gadgets such as probes and global-positioning-system devices catch students' interest at Harrison Central High School.

      I think this is great!
  • Only when we get students out of the paper and pencil learning and get them immersed in real world application, will we be able to educate students so that they can not only collect data, but analyze and interpret those resuts as well; therefore creating students who are critical thinkers!
