Technology in Your Classroom: 4 Pillars

http://tinyurl.com/llemt6

The above link leads to a very interesting blog about integrating technology into your classroom. The 4 pillar approach it speaks of is very interesting, and it may be something you want to think about when wondering how to incorporate all the lovely ideas from 11 Tools, and the cool thing is, we already have some of these pillars in place. Makes things even easier! Happy reading! Ciao!!

Creating My Blog

When I first learned that we were going to be creating blogs, I have to say I was very excited! I have never had my own blog, but I always new having one would be an excellent form of communication. I enjoyed creating my Voki, and after that experience, I wanted to add more. I created a simple Wordle to add just to see how I could go about adding things from other web tools. After that, I decided to create a Twitter account. I can truly say the creation of my blog has encouraged me to be more involved in social media!

Once I created my Twitter account, I started following some really Tech savvy people. I quickly became jealous (not anything I'd like to admit :-) ) I was looking through all these wonderful blogs that were attached to these people's Twitter accounts and I figured, why not do the same? So, I added a Twitter follow button to my blog! Haha.

I'm so excited to be working with these 11 tools! I can't wait to start planning their incorporation in my classroom! Good luck to all!! Ciao.

"tcea: The free Moments Ago app for iPod/iPhone is a great communication tool for teachers to use with parenas. http://bit.ly/ile0u8

This app is also compatible with the iPad, so it's something to think about for next year. :-)
