The Connected Classroom - http://khokanson.blogspot.com/
2. My views on technology have been broadened. It is
becoming apparent that there are so many ways that
technology can be used in the classroom. I never really
thought about the difference between incorporating
technology in the classroom and really utilizing it. They
can be very different! The whole point of technology is
to get something across in the lesson that could not
happen without the technological tools. As seen on the
cool cat blog, technology can be used to get all kinds of
messages across whether they are serious, offering
helpful hints, or just for fun. It can all be beneficial. The
connected classroom blog helps to show technology
from different angles. Even though the technology is for
students, it involves so many more people. The teachers
have to be willing and knowledgeable, and there has to
be someone to show the teachers how to use the
technology in the first place!
3. I was really interested to see the different types of
PowerPoints and how they can be used. I think we have
all been in classes where the PowerPoints are even
more boring than the lecture itself! I'll be excited to try
and put my own twist on the traditional PowerPoint so
that it can actually benefit my students. While they
should only be used in moderation, power points
should make a difference when you do use them.
