Technology in the classroom

I would like you to find videos, articles, anything on technology in the classroom, its' usefulness, its' controversial connections, and post them on your blogs, like one of the students here has already done and we can comment on them on our blogs, and we can discuss them in class as well.

Here is an example of one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_A-ZVCjfWf8

Reflections on Song....

The video by Brad Paisley, sums up technology that we all thought would never happen in our lifetime. It is amazing the amount of changes that have happened since the first computers were invented. They say that the first computer was so large that it filled up a whole room. Imagine our students pondering on that today. Their first reaction would be...unbelievable. But as we all know, technology can be a friend or a foe. It is our job as educators to inform our potential scholars of how to use technology to enhance their learning and not hinder it. That is why we are blogging today. I am looking forward to comments and also posting on your own blogs.

Your first task

I'd like you to follow this link and listen to the song as well as find the lyrics and write a reflection on your own blogs so that we can read it.
