Technology in the Classroom - What are you doing?

Have you recently received a new techno gadget in your classroom? Tell us how you are using it.


I find that as a teacher we are always asked to do more. How do we help the struggling students? How do we push the students who excel? How do we appeal to the different learning styles? What ways are we incorporating differentiated learning? With all the things we have to keep in mind teachers are now faced with the question many of us find simply terrifying: How are we implementing technology in the classroom?


With the newest phase of teaching dealing with technology our schools are writing grants and having fundraisers to get new technology in the classroom. But many teachers get this equipment and then think; this thing is really cool! How do I use it?


This blog is designed to help teachers share quick and easy ways to share what they are doing in the classroom in the realm of technology. So, how are you using your LCD projector? How are you using your ELMO, WhiteBoard, or other new fancy gadget. What is great about your new technology? What is horrible? Feel free to share your successes as well as you horror stories. I think we all can learn much from our victories and our losses!
