It was a great show with just the shows hosts Lisa Durff, Maria Knee, Alice Mercer, and Jose Rodriguez sharing what they’ve been doing this year in their classrooms, and the obstacles they faced. Points of interest:

  • Technology is not a something separate, but an integral part of our teaching
  • We use it to help kids make connections to the rest of the world
  • Some issues were how to get kids used to writing, and not just playing on computers, how to plan and allocate time on the computers, and how much choice to give kids.
  • How annoying, and brain-dead e-rate filtering programs are to deal with.
