Converge is a website that gives you strategies for using technology in the K-12 setting. Some highlights from the site cover; digital teaching and professional development, mobile learning and security, campus technology infrastructure to classroom technology uses. One article that caught my interest is "School Districts Integrate Technology into Core-based Curriculum." The article discusses school districts that are working to meet their learning goals with technology with the learning driving the technology instead of the other way around. All of the articles seem to cover successful practical uses of technology in the classroom which are ideas I am always looking for.

A discussion of appropriate use AND NON USE of technology in the art and craft of teaching in higher education. Good discussion starter for instructional design and tech integration. Examples of when technology (ie. tools, gadgets and trends) did not result in "better" learning. A reminder that we DESIGN instruction intentionally - not according to the latest fad.

Robert Conrad on 01 Jul 10

If you haven't seen this YouTube video, you must. It is a collection of AT&T television ads from 1993 predicting the impact of future technologies on our lives. It is amazingly insightful with one exception: phone booths! Don't forget, the world wide web was in its infancy in 1993 with a minute number of sites that the general public knew little or nothing about. Anyone recognize the narrator's voice?

This article seems to counter a lot of what we hoped: It indicates that giving computers to students may lead to lower academic performance. Hmmm. We may need to look at the methodology behind this study.

I agree with you Sonya. I also think that the article does not state how students are expected to use the computers. Are teachers being trained? I think more variables are needed to support the claim that technology is not "making a dent" in education. It's like giving a kid a baseball bat and expect him to hit a homerun. The kid needs coaching, preferably from someone who knows what they are talking about!

This blog is done by a friend of mine. He has some great ideas for integrating technology in the classroom, and most of his entries are "good" reads. I have had the privilege to work on projects with him and this is where he highlights his ideas. Enjoy!
