Week 7

What is the role of technology in creating dynamic experiences for your students?
Technology has the capacity of making learning fun and much more interesting than traditional teaching methods. Technology also makes many activities possible that wouldn't exist without the types of technology we have now.

What are some ways that technology might actually detract from student learning?
If the teacher or students get too caught up in the technology tool itself, it may detract from learning the actual concepts. It is important for the teacher to focus on the content standard primarily, and use the technology as a means to accomplish that goal.

What are three examples of effective technology use that you have used or experienced?
iMovie, kidspiration, and google earth are all very effective technologies for teaching.
