 | Good morning Professor, Im doing a project on technology in the classroom, would it be ok if I asked you for some advice? | |
|
| Of course, today almost everything is handled with technology, for example: twitter for students to participate with questions, the use of podcasts, asking your students to do a character / historical person study for them to create mock social media profiles. | |

|
| Wow, there are so many things you can do that I never knew about! What else is there? | |
|
| Yes, there are so many possibilities! You can also have students create a study guide ... working together on a group wiki, have them share photos of their holidays through an online photo repository and you can even get students to summarize a recent chapter in a text message. | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Amazing! And why is all of this so important do you think? | |
|
| Because it allows you to do so many different things, for example you can take your students on a field trip to the Great Wall of China or the Louvre without leaving the classroom, you dont need to ask students to turn cellphones off in the classes because you plan on using them and also you can teach students the importance of not being a cyberbully. | |
