I believe there are many ways I can use technology in the classroom after I become aware and comfortable with many of the tools. Blogging, one of the easiest ways, can enable students to comment and collaborate after reading an article/chapter. This can provide numerous advantages to both the students and the teacher. This also would allow all students the chance to voice their opinion and feelings about the content, but they could also question themselves and each other in the process. I also love the opportunity to provide differentiated learning experiences for students. By posing an essential question as a unit assessment they would be able to respond in a variety of ways, thus selecting the medium that best suits them.

Steph…Blogging also opens a whole variety of resources on the internet that students can link to, read, and discuss. Like we said in the workshop, one of the most important skills that comes along with this is the ability to sift through the vast amount of information.
