What methods do you use to integrate technology into the classroom?
In my class I use the Promethean Board as an interactive tool rather than as a glorified chalkboard. This fall I used Dropbox as a tool for students to submit research papers/essays. This process allowed me to create a paperless environment for the classroom. This has proved to be very successful with the students. In addition to the tools above, I have attempted to use a cell phone survey as a class warm-up assignment.
What will students be working on in the future with technology?
For the spring semester, I'm working on an "electronic" research paper. The report will be an audio-visual assignment rather than the typical type of research paper. I am still in the planning stage for this project.
