Note: This blog post is post #6 of a series of 'edublog posts' I'll be creating as part of my EDUC Technology Class.
Hello Gr. 7s,
Since it is one of our goals to get to know our educational technologies more this year, I've been trying to brush up on my skills and come up with some fun, engaging activities for us all.
I've been having lots of fun receiving my SMARTboard training, and hope you've been enjoying the activities we've tried out in class.
But there is another educational technology that will soon be entering our classroom, and that is our class set of ipads, which will be arriving in the next two weeks!
I am very excited to learn more about how ipad usage in the classroom can help us interact with one another and connect with some of the incredible resources that are available to us on the world wide web.
We'll be having some fun developing media projects with our ipads, and developing meaningful interactions with technology that enable us to appreciate the way in which we can use technology as a tool to enhance our creativity, at the same time that we continue to explore nature and 'learning through doing and creating'.
I'm really excited for us all, that we have the opportunity to take part in such an exciting program and know that we will encounter some wonderful things together!
My journey towards technological understanding is an ongoing process, and one that I am excited to share with you all as we learn together!
-Miss Pollard
