@Julious09 @Janfra2 I use technology for educational purposes like watching videos for my Jolly Phonics are other educational resources on video, I use an ipad for phono asessment but I do not use a class set of ipads.

[Robert Lam @RobertLam002]

@Janfra2 @Kaylie45220239 Yes I agree with that they are pro's and they use it a lot at home.

@Julious09 @Janfra2 I have an ipad to do my phono assessment. I use technology to show educational videos of different topics i teach in my classroom. I do not have a class set of ipads. The primary kids have a set but i choose not to use them.

[Robert Lam @RobertLam002]

@Janfra2 @Kaylie45220239 Yes I agree.

[Robert Lam @RobertLam002]

@Janfra2 I connect with that some things you have to use. For example my Jolly Phonics program is also on video and I show that and other educational videos.

Let's talk about the role of technology in education. @Janfra2 #QueensCONT923chat

[Robert Lam @RobertLam002]

@Kaylie45220239 Yes that is true.

[Robert Lam @RobertLam002]

@Janfra2 @Kaylie45220239 I do use technology in the way of projecting or show videos etc. I just dont use ipads in my classroom

[Robert Lam @RobertLam002]

@Kaylie45220239 Sure. I choose not to use technology in my classroom. I think of it more of a distraction than a tool.

[Robert Lam @RobertLam002]

@Janfra2 Interesting information about media and learning

[Robert Lam @RobertLam002]

@Janfra2 I have not used technology in my classroom. We have access to primary ipads but that is used by the other classes. I dont really volunteer to use them. I feel that they use enough at home
