I am looking into my crystal ball…. what is the future of education?

I teach at a 1:1 laptop school where students bring their own laptop to school everyday. This is my first 1:1 laptop school and I really enjoy the freedom this brings with it- I don’t have to sign up for a laptop […] -

When I first heard about the Flipped Classroom, I kind of scratched my head at first wondering why it was considered so innovative. Now that I know more about Reverse Instruction, I’m still not convinced that it […] -

It is really refreshing and inspiring to read an administrator’s perspective on taking the technology to a deeper level, within their own domain at the admin level. I can imagine that for the teachers at your […]

Hi Natalie-
I like how you laid out your scenarios and I feel the same way. Have you heard about Google’s eyeglasses? It’s getting us closer to the USB in the head but in this case it will be embedded via […]

As a Biology teacher, I struggle with how to appropriately incorporate technology in the classroom.

Paige Prescott commented on the blog post Technology Strategies in Education: Something Lost, Something Gained 5 months, 4 weeks ago
