A technology I want to use in my classroom

Short videos (5 min.) Create my own videos and have the students create some as well

Great for introductions or conclusions of subject matter…even math problems!

My vision of the classroom of the future

Teachers and students use technology to create and collaborate in a classroom setting or cyberspace

New and interactive technological development to improve learning

Each student makes a connection to digital learning and flourishes

Equal division of technology and hands-on learning

A challenge for teaching

Different computer skill levels

Equal access to technology
