    These articles are interesting and easy to read through! There is a lot of information about educational technology. The bried articles gave you different ways to implement ideas into my classroom and why these concepts are so important.

5 K-12 Ed Tech Trends for 2012 -- THE Journal - 0 views

  •  
    While it is interesting for me to see what is expected to be coming down the pipe in 2012, it's also moderately depressing to compare where my current school is to where things should be going. We're already miles behind and with the current financial woes in the district (and the state), I don't see how things are going to get any better. We have a tech charter high school that has expanded to include 7th and 8th grade. I know they are getting resources and professional development, but among the rest of us, the only innovations are coming at the hands of educators who are seeing it on their own. There is no money. No district support. No recognition of the fact that our kids are being left behind.
