some students who struggle in class doing paper/pencil tasks were superstars when using technology

I will be using video-making projects throughout the year.  This will allow students to:
1) collaborate
2) build interest
3) promote active engagement during learning
4) demonstrate creativity
5) show concept mastery
6) be proud of their work
7) to become more comfortable using technology

students were far more engaged creating a video which led to a more comprehensive understanding of our lesson. This was evident by comparing our pre- and post-assessment results (on a concept that was revisited from earlier in the year).  Pre-assess showed no retention at all, post-assessment demonstrated mastery for 15 of 16 students involved!

even individual projects using iMovie turned into group collaborations. Students helped each other by operating the camera, directing the dialogue or giving feedback in the editing process.

my students are able to create their own videos to share with our class.
Not only were they fun to create, but they were more fun to watch (as well as the reaction of the creators!)

I wonder if my students would benefit from using Flocabulary?

# data[].attributes.body
if students would retain knowledge better by writing/typing a paper, or creating a video or slideshow?

if technology improves group collaboration?

Or would they just waste time and disturb each other?

But then I wonder if autocorrect will help students, or make them less capable of developing spelling & grammar skills?

Then I wonder if a dictation software could help non-typists progress at using technology?

# data[].attributes.body
I wonder if students with poor typing skills are overwhelmed by using the computer?

if my students would be able to create their own videos to share with the class?

I wonder if all learning styles benefit from using technology?

# data[].attributes.body
I wonder if students will become overly dependent on technology if we use it all the time?

# data[].attributes.body
I wonder if my students could create their own Quizlets or Kahoots for their classmates to use?

# data[].attributes.body
I wonder if using technology will promote effective student communication?

# data[].attributes.body
I wonder if students can use technology to improve their writing?

I wonder if students retain information better if we use the interactive white board?
