1. Technology integration is using new and inovative techniques to help give your child a better rounded education. The possibilities are endless with the multitude of different technologies available to teachers and students alike. We can use parmethean boards in class, laptops instead of overhead projectors and blogs to keep family informed of developments in class.

2. I would use a laptop computer hooked to the overhead projector to show graphs and things in excel to my students. We will use the computer to view PBS videos on the subjects we are studying at the moment.

3.A. Hardware=keyboard Software=TurboTax B. An example of a browser is Internet Explorer. C. A serch engine is like=Google D. A spread sheet program and a data base program example is Windows Access and Excel.

4. The most important legal issue we covered in class in my opinion is the copywrite laws and using other peoples work without their permission.

5. I believe that a partner system in a computer lab is a good thing if the people live close enough to get together at times other than class time to work on the project.

6. One technology-based activity that we could do outside of class would be to go out to the picnic tables one day and use laptop computers to have class outside in the fresh air.

7. Twitter was a very nice feature and I really liked it but everyone should have texting on their phones in order for it to work correctly. Not being able to receive or send tweets on my phone was a big drag.

8. The main technology-related activity that I did not know about before this class and feel I can use by myself now is the blog and twitter. The blog was especially good because I can see using this for my classroom activities to keep the parents up to date on activities and assignments in the class.

9. I feel that the parmethean board should be covered in this class because they are in more and more of the classrooms now. I do not know how they work or even how to hook one up and it will be embarrasing this fall if the teacher I am helping asks me to hook something up to it and I don't know how.

10. I am torn as to which will be more beneficial to me as an educator because there were several things we covered that I really liked. The cramberry sight, the rubistar, and trackstar were all very helpful sites for teachers just getting started in the profession who need the extra help and resources.
