I can integrate technology into my classroom by including it in my lesson plans. We have created wiki's and web quests and they are effective tools in learning. With a wiki you can post homework and examples online for your students to access when they are home and have questions. You can also create a web quest like we have and put up places that students can go to find other resources for the unit that you are working on. These are a couple of ways that technology can be integrated into your class and as a class we came up with the consensus that they are both effective tools. There are an endless number of things out there, but these are the two that I am familiar with the most. I know that we have used others and an example would have to be blogging. It allows use to reflect and it uses technology. It is very effective and environment friendly.
The only question that I can think of is what are other major ways can you use technology to effectively teach students? I am talking mostly about software! There must be other cool software out there that we can use right? If so then what is it and how can we use it?

I have even mentione some stuff about this entry in the entry before also. I pretty much hit the nail on the head when I wrote this entry. I really haven't had anything change. The only thing that has changed is the ability to use the tools that I already had and make more optional things with them. I know more than just the basics and can do more indepth stuff with it. I still feel that you can use a smart board, wiki, and or webquest to get students interested in learning through teaching using technology that runs well.
