Technology is a beneficial tool allowing students to be engaged in their learning and to aid in the preparation for their future. The past two years, Zionsville Community School Corporation, has been experiencing a 1:1 laptop program. We initially started at the 6th grade level with one team of teachers at each middle school, piloting the program. The overall experience was a huge success. Now this year, the 2009-2010 school year; we currently have all 6th and 7th grade students in the middle schools using a netbook everyday in the classroom. The program has allowed for teachers, students, and parents to work collaboratively to learn how technology enhances the learning environment.
I would like to share with you several ways that technology can be integrated into your curriculum and how it has changed the role of the teacher in the classroom and enhances student engagement and learning.
Please check out the other links to view different types of technology that can be used in your classroom. I have included the purpose of each tool, how these tools benefit students, why teachers like using these tools, and examples of how they are used. If you have questions or comments you would like to share please feel free to create a post. I will answer any question you may have.
