I Can See What You Are Learning
What are some ways that you use technology in your
classroom today?
Rationale
"Undoubtedly, without these recent technologies (i.e. digital games, Web 2.0, etc.) in the classroom, strong lessons can still be achieved, but there’s a sharp disconnect between the way students are taught in school and the way the outside world approaches socialization, meaning-making, and accomplishment."(Klopfer, Osterwell, Groff, & Haas, 2009)
My presentation today will help you connect your students and their writing in the content areas through the use of some free technology tools.
