Learning with Technology

Thing 5

Posted by Connie on March 17, 2008




I have had a Google Reader account set up for quite some time but I enjoyed adding Shelley’s list to my list of feeds. The Techlearning blog entitled “Evaluating Technology in the Classroom” was particularly interesting to me as I am continually seeking ideas to improve the technology integration at our school.

Two of the questions raised helped me as I am in the process of creating a survey to assess technology usage.

  1. Is the technology allowing the teacher/students to do Old things in New ways?
  2. Is the technology creating new and different learning experiences for the students?

I think I need to slow down from time to time in order to assess, reflect and communicate with teachers to determine the direction we need to take to work smarter.
