Significant Postings from the Blogging Experience

All of the postings offered many new and interesting ideas on integrating technology into the classroom. One of my favorite postings is from Heidi, “Technology Integration Made Easy.” The article from Education world offered creative ideas on implementing classroom technology, such as online weather forecasting, word of the day, SAT practice and Brain Teasers computer games. Ideas such as these are great for teachers who want to use technology, but don’t know where to start.
Another interesting post is from Carla, “Enhance Literacy through Cable News Internet Site.” The article discusses improving literacy through news stories from CNN. This would be a great way for students to learn about current events, along with technology skills. The site also has good follow-up activities, like vocabulary and sequencing.
