Tom Barrett's intersting ways to use various technology in the classroom!
I found this list of links to technology ideas to be used in the classroom setting very helpful for me! Our curriculum is devoted to being active and so it is very hard for me to develop lessons that are not activity-based in nature. However, I found various ideas using many of the technologies listed which made me feel comfortable in infusing technology with my teaching instruction and the students get the most from the lesson, even if they aren't active that day. But, the best technology would be for my students to access subject matter outside of my classroom and then be ready to discuss and incorporate the information along with being active...that's my goal!

What a great site!
ReplyDeleteI immediately went to the iPad uses in the classroom since I just got back from an iPad class! Hopefully in time there will be more free apps available for the iPad.
What a great list!! While exploring the list I came across WallWisher. It is like a combination of twitter and glogster. I think that my students would get a real kick out of this. I am super excited to try using this with my class.
ReplyDelete@Sarah,
ReplyDeleteI just looked at WallWisher - very cool. You described it very will as a combination of Twitter and Glogster. My favorite example was the class that used it for book reviews. I may have to try this for my library.
