Before beginning this course, I thought that technology in the classroom simply meant laptops and Smart Boards, but now I'm finding that "technology" encompasses so much more than that. It's really cool to hear about educators who are incorporating Twitter and a more informal approach to learning in ther curricula.
However, I still have doubts as to what digital technology can accomplish as compared to more traditional - and sometimes less expensive - technologies. What are the benefits of learning through digital technology? I think that working with students at Shipley will help me answer this question.
