INTEGRATING TECHNOLOGY
Integrating TechnologyHow do you include technology in your practice?▪ Find a tool and figure out how to use it with your
students/staff ▪ Think about what you already do with your
students/staff and then how technology could deepen or expand on the lesson (POST)
▪ Think of a challenging task and how technology might help
23
POST Method▪ P is People. Know the capabilities of your audience. Know what
scaffolding they’ll need.▪ O is objectives. Pick one. Decide on your objective before you
decide on a technology. Then figure out how you will measure it.▪ S is Strategy. Figure out what will be different after you're done.
Imagine you succeed. How will things be different afterwards? Imagine the endpoint and you'll know where to begin.
▪ T is Technology. A community. A wiki. A blog or a hundred blogs. Once you know your people, objectives, and strategy, then you can decide with confidence.

WAYS TO PLAY KAHOOT
https://getkahoot.com/ways-to-play
• The Quiz is the most commonly used format, it includes timed responses and a points system creating a competitive atmosphere.
• The Survey is similar but does not use points. This means it can be used for feedback or finding out what a class knows without the competition.
• A Discussion is a single question, without the competitive elements. This can be used to ignite discussion, at the beginning of a session. For example, you could ask a question such as 'I believe that women are biologically more suited to looking after children'. The responses will then appear at the front, which could ignite debate
