Just a quick check in today - just wanted to share something that made me excited today. I'm on the ICT team at my school. We are in the process of developing our vision/policies/wishlist at the moment. As part of this, myself and two other teachers headed to a school today to see what they are doing with digital technologies.
It was so good to see what others are doing, and has given me a new fire for integrating technology in my programme. These kids were so articulate about why they were using the technologies they had. Not only that, but I could see that they were all engaged in the learning!
Next step - get my students some chrome books!
What technology can you not live without - let me know what you have, how you use it, and what grades you teach.
I love the Chromebooks I have in my room. I only have 8 right now, but will hopefully have a classroom set soon; we are waiting for some wireless repairs. I love that my students can grab one and work on something quickly. They boot up so fast and link them to everything they need.
