Technology in the classroom by Brandie Little https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv en-us 2016-11-10 19:53:32 UTC 2025-10-07 15:06:42 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Lightdecrease.png blittle41 https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/136876348 What do we do to ensure that students are learning how to write and use paper properly with all the technology being used? ]]> 2016-11-10 19:56:10 UTC https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/136876348 Shelby Williams shelbywilliams85 https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/137043359 We must incorporate both written and technology based assignments into their learning. We have to know what an appropriate balance is.

For example, when assigning a research paper let students use computers to look up information, but then make them use pen and paper to actually write it. I have attached a link that discusses the issue. abbyelam23 https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/137394669 http://www.writerstreasure.com/pen-and-paper-vs-computer/]]> 2016-11-14 15:09:54 UTC https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/137394669 ershambaugh https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/137469769 To ensure that students use all of their resource they need to have a balance. ]]> 2016-11-14 17:43:37 UTC https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/137469769 amandafletcher_fletcher https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/137613373 As many other people have stated you need balance. If you are teaching students how to do an outline on a computer spend equal amount of time with teaching them how to do an outline on paper. This will alert students that sometimes technology isn't always on hand for them to use. ]]> 2016-11-15 04:43:51 UTC https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/137613373 McKenzie Morris fireangel_2323 https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/138325043 Set aside assignments to be written down. For instance, making students write their plans down for a paper and their rough draft down before typing it. ]]> 2016-11-17 08:39:32 UTC https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/138325043 Matti Dix mattidix1184 https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/139230403 Many assignments in the classroom can be written on paper. Of course, we will want to mix up the lessons and introduce students to new technology, but kids still need to learn and know how to do work with a pen and paper. ]]> 2016-11-21 22:43:33 UTC https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/139230403 Kimberly Hon khon https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/139405656 Although we use technology, I feel that we should also have the students work on paper with pen/pencil still some of the time so that they do not lose the skill of writing. ]]> 2016-11-22 16:31:01 UTC https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/139405656 Baleigh Williams bwilliams54 https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/139412428 I think that as long as we focus on balancing the relationship between technology and pen and paper assignments this will never be an issue. I do think that writing neatly is important so maybe as teachers we should focus on the ways to ensure students are confident with writing an assignment.]]> 2016-11-22 16:52:22 UTC https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/139412428 Naomi Sanders nsanders288 https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/139421988 While I believe students should write, draft, and edit their papers on a computer, I understand the importance of using paper and pencil. I think students should have a writing journal where they are given assignments and topics to write about daily. This will create a balance between writing on paper and writing on a computer. ]]> 2016-11-22 17:27:08 UTC https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/139421988 Lindsay King lindsaybeth13 https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/139431382 Having students begin writing at an early age can help them develop writing skills before they are even introduced to technology. I work at a daycare and the preschoolers are already writing their names, colors and shapes. ]]> 2016-11-22 18:00:15 UTC https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/139431382 Hannah Keith han_huf https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/139453299 I believe that both writing on paper and technology should be used. It is vital for students to know how to use them both. By using both in the classroom it will ensure that the students will learn how to utilize both. ]]> 2016-11-22 19:16:02 UTC https://padlet.com/blittle41/6ucsq4bignvv/wish/139453299
