AP English Class Gets Hooked on Nooks - 2 views

  •  
    I found this article very informative. The article talked about how Nooks were being used in an AP English class and how this form of technology has helped kids get more involved. The students were reading more and enjoying it more than ever. It also discussed the apps and tools the Nook has to offer to make the students reading more effective, like highlighters, dictionary and a way to take notes while reading. I think that anything that gets kids reading more and enjoying it is something we should look more into.

10 practical ideas for using iPads in English & Math - 5 views

  •  
    I think that this is a great article. I am in an English class right now and we were given an iPad to use for the class but our instructor didnt really now how to use the gadget. This would have been nice to have before we got the technology. The article points out a lot of apps that can be used to help with discovering elements of literature. It also gives examples of apps that can be used for a math class.

Incorporating Technology into the Modern English Language Arts Classroom - 2 views

  •  
    I really like this article because it gave examples of how teachers can incorporate all different kinds of technology into the classroom. It gave hope to teachers that might be afraid of changing traditional methods of teaching an English class. The article also detailed how students can help teachers understand new forms of technology and the teacher can incorporate those things while still reaching the teaching standards of each district.
