A new study is being conducted to see whether or not use of 3D technology in the classroom enhances the learning experience. The results showed an increase in test scores, attentiveness, and student's ability to recall information. The study was conducted in the UK and involved 740 students age 10-13.

Some day I'll tell my grand-children about seeing my first 3-D movie with "special glasses." Great article.

Keeping the "TED Talk" in mind, this article gives a quick informative look on how classroom technology has changed over time. The Horn Book, a paddle with the alphabet and Bible verses written on it for students to copy, was one of the first things listed. The list also includes pencils, the radio, and of course iPads. One thing I found interesting was the authors included their Twitter address for people to tweet things they think should be added to the list.

Great article, Arianna. I enjoyed the pictures. You can tweet back to the authors on Saturday after our Twitter session and add a few more to the list.
