I use a laptop and am proficient with the microsoft office software and using the internet for research and information.
ReplyDeleteAfter watching this video, I can now say that I am not really technology literate. The Sixth Sense is a tool that pretty much thinks for you and has information right at the tips of your hands. The capabilities are endless. Implementing such a tool into my life or classroom is scary. I wonder if such a tool takes away from one's ability to reason and solve problems.
Technology can be implemented without interupting the integrity of the classroom if it enhances instruction, rather than take away from it. Technology must be a tool and not a toy.
One barrier to implmeneting technology is training and understanding the capabilities of the tool. Consistency, training, and time are issues at hand.
I use the laptop and the projector conected to the computer to display things we are studying in class. We use the internet for much of the data and information we learned.
ReplyDeleteI feel that I am technology literate. I am good with all of the software we use and pick up on new things fairly quickly. I agree with you, Laura, when you say that training in proper use of the tool, not just being able to pull it up and show we have it is most important.
