Some Classroom Tech Advice

Ways that a teacher might need to change common practice to engage digital natives:

1. Subscribe to technology feeds. Pick and choose what you would like to try and what would work best in your specific classroom.
2. Attend professional development that focuses on integrating technology in the classroom.
3. Stay connected! Talk to other staff members and educators about what they do in the classroom.
4. Small steps, wins the race. Try one technology idea at a time and don't overwhelm yourself!
5. Always reflect. Was the new technology useful? Were the students engaged? Did it meet the objective you were going for? Did the students learn? What can I do differently next time?
