iPads for English Language Learners - 1 views

  •  
    I found that iPads for English Language Learners website to be a great resource not only for the ELL student, but for the entire classroom. It displays the app icon and the app title along with a description. This website was easy to scan through because it organizes the apps into categories (math, science, productivity, translators, etc…). The only downside to this app is that it did not provide the price.

Teaching in the 21st Century - 2 views

  •  
    This video summarizes the importance of integrating technology into our classrooms to help prepare our students for today's world. Though children have access to technology every day, they are not always equipped with the right tools to use it effectively. Bringing technology into the classroom in a relevant, challenging, and engaging way will stimulate our students and allow them to be challenged in new ways, collaborate with their peers, create and grow. Though the task can seem daunting, the video stresses to start small and collaborate to simplify the process. I found that this video follows the SAMR model in that it encourages the use of technology to enhance student learning and to use it to transform student learning in ways that were never thought possible.
