Little Kids...Big Potential


Useful Video About Using Wiki's, Blogs, and 
Other Technology in the Classroom - Week 5 Blog

This is a very useful video I found on Youtube when searching for Classroom Wiki's.  This video demonstrates the different ways to use technology within the classroom.  Children explain how they blog, use wiki's and even Skype. It is obvious they are in control of their learning.  They show ownership and understanding through their digital demonstrations.  The collaboration between students within the class as well as throughout the country is evident, and extremely wonderful! Very impressive and something to strive to incorporate into my teaching.  Please enjoy!  What do you think about letting the students play Nintendo DS in school?  In this video children are allowed to play a game called Nintendog, an educational game, would you like to see kids bring in their technology devises to use in school?

  1. Michelle, this is one of the most powerful statements I have heard about the integration of technology into the classroom to propel student learning. It definitely helps to hear all the information from the students' mouths. Just about every technology we will work with in our course is covered in this video. You know I will be sharing this with others, and I hope everyone in our class checks into your blog, reads this post, watches the video, and comments.
