While working on our Technology Notebooks, I really enjoyed reading about how technology was successfully incorporated into many schools curriculum. Technology is becoming a very important in the field of education and it is crucial to understand how to use technology effectively. All of the presentations that were done explained the importance of technology and the steps that are being taken to ensure that technology is being used effectively and appropriately.
When reviewing Katie's video I was reminded of the importance of never putting limitations on students and the technology that can help them learn. The consistent advancement of technology is rapidly being incorporated into special education curriculum and can make a huge impact on a students ability to learn and achieve academic goals.
When reviewing Kevin's narrated "PowerPoint" presentation, I was surprised to see that high education has been quicker to use technology then K-12. One advantage to waiting to implement technology is to review the success and failures of using technology. With K-12 education waiting to implement technology, they are more likely to have success with technology in the classroom.
Melissa's "Glogster Poster" emphasized the importance of giving everyone a voice and getting positive feedback from students and other faculty members. The "Speak Up" program she highlighted explains how students are often not satisfied with the classrooms technology capabilities. Students want digital rich learning and through the guidance of this class I will be able to meet the needs of students.
