A6. I think technology broadens their world view (hopefully). Easier to access other countries, other's ways of life, etc. Technology brings it home much more than just reading about it. #RCSTechChat
A5. I think it helps them to feel like they are part of the discussion which encourages even more participation. The access that the technology creates provides that opportunity when simply reading a text might not. #RCSTechChat
A4. I think even something as simple as parents having iNow access has helped. Easier to check missing assignments, etc. More accurate info than from students at times and easier than contacting teacher #RCSTechChat
A3. To me, it helps level the playing field with different skill levels among students. Easier for some to participate and add to discussions. #RCSTechChat
A2. We discussed the use of Immersive Reader at one of our PLCs recently. A great way for our students to access the curriculum. I relate to parents often that we need to make sure we are assessing what they know about a topic and not just their ability to read. #RCSTechChat
