@Jacquel071176 @feltnerm @smwc A2 reply: I would want to make sure I know what I am doing with the technology as well. It would be horrible to not know what I am doing and trying to teach the class. #SMWCED115 @smwc

@LeighHinkle @feltnerm @smwc A7 reply: I have heard great things about SAMR and recently I read an article about how more and more schools are using it in their classrooms. #SMWCED115 @smwc

@StephenieWeaver @feltnerm @smwc Yes the history in the device being used is a good thing to view after students are finished. If there is more than one device, the teacher could put numbers on them and assign students a number to match the device. #SMWCED115

@AshleyDowns @feltnerm @smwc That is so true. I didn't have a computer or internet when I was growing up until middle school. Then again it was very slow. My parents were smart though and put the computer in their room. #SMWCED115

@nicholscarlie11 @feltnerm @smwc Summer training is a good idea. Time limits are good to an extent. I know I don't like to work under pressure like that. I would be looking at the time winding down more than I would be doing my work. #SMWCED115

[Amanda @Amanda51201528]

@ProvinesTabatha @feltnerm @smwc That's exactly what I would wonder when a student is using technology in the classroom. Let's just hope they remember the rules. I don't like pop ups, they are annoying and distracting. #SMWCED115

[Amanda @Amanda51201528]

@LeighHinkle @feltnerm @smwc Consequences do need to be put in play the minute technology is being used. This rules need to be plastered up in the classroom so there will be no excuses. #SMWCED115

@cooter883 @feltnerm @smwc These days technology is too addictive for children. They are so young and some of them know more about technology than adults. I like having more nature in the classroom as well. Where I work there is zero technology for children. #SMWCED115 @smwc

@feltnerm @smwc A8: Flipboard. Read articles from The New York Times, National Geographic, Vanity Fair, and thousands more. Design Smart Magazines: bundle sources, people and even hashtags. Keep up with the news in daily roundup. Collect stories and add them to personal magazines. #SMWCED115

[Amanda @Amanda51201528]

@feltnerm @smwc A7: SAMR because students can use technology to build on their ideas and turn it into something big. #SMWCED115

[Amanda @Amanda51201528]

@feltnerm @IXLLearning @smwc A6: interactive websites such as BrainPOP, Voicethread, a collaborative multimedia conversation tool. Explore student-created multimedia presentations using Microsoft PowerPoint, LibreOffice, Prezi, or Google Docs. Collaborate using apps like Whiteboard. #SMWCED115

[Amanda @Amanda51201528]

@feltnerm @smwc A5: Teachers should fill the parents in by emailing them information and videos about this. Allow them to ask questions. Set up a meeting if needed. #SMWCED115

[Amanda @Amanda51201528]

@feltnerm @smwc A4: Schools need to prepare teachers when they adopt 1:1 devices by letting them use the devices first to see what they can do with them. This way if there are any glitches or questions they can be addressed before hand. Teachers need experience. #SMWCED115

[Amanda @Amanda51201528]

@feltnerm @smwc A3: Teachers need to teach their students what is expected of them while using technology in the classrooms. Teachers need to let the students know that there will be consequences for any misuse of technology. #SMWCED115

[Amanda @Amanda51201528]

@feltnerm @smwc A2: My concerns regarding technology in the classroom would be, how much technology is used during each day? What would happen if technology doesn't want to work that day? Is technology taking away from the regular paper and pencil? Is it being used as a fill in? #SMWCED115

[Amanda @Amanda51201528]

@feltnerm @smwc A2: My concerns regarding technology in the classroom would be how much technology would be used each day in the classroom? What happens when the technology doesn't work? Is technology going to take over paper and pencil? Is technology going to used properly or is it a fill in?
