As our reading showed, students learn when collaborating with others. Using technology to support collaboration can also lead to more participation from all students]]> 2017-08-23 01:41:40 UTC https://padlet.com/mnmeyer/u3ue1akrgl53/wish/182229185 mnmeyer https://padlet.com/mnmeyer/u3ue1akrgl53/wish/182229341 I wonder which technology tools are best served in teaching mathematics....

From looking at others research I have discovered Math Playground, and as part of this the Thinking Blocks game that Liz and Natalie wrote about for their case study.]]> 2017-08-23 01:43:00 UTC https://padlet.com/mnmeyer/u3ue1akrgl53/wish/182229341 mnmeyer https://padlet.com/mnmeyer/u3ue1akrgl53/wish/182229416 I wonder which tools are most helpful in supporting student language development....

Through my research I have seen that there are a plethora of options for supporting language development in the classroom.

My research has shown that there are many tech tools that can encourage those that often choose not to speak a voice. Some of these tools include Voki and Voxer]]> 2017-08-23 01:46:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mnmeyer/u3ue1akrgl53/wish/182229797 mnmeyer https://padlet.com/mnmeyer/u3ue1akrgl53/wish/182229915 I wonder what skills augmented reality builds for elementary students....

This is another area that I hope to learn more about. I haven't seen much use of AR in the classroom at this point, but I do see potential for increased engagement and interest.]]> 2017-08-23 01:47:12 UTC https://padlet.com/mnmeyer/u3ue1akrgl53/wish/182229915 mnmeyer https://padlet.com/mnmeyer/u3ue1akrgl53/wish/182230472 I wonder if using tech as a means of collaboration will continue to increase struggles for interpersonal relationships amongst peers......

This is a question I continue to wonder about. I hope to look into this topic more. I do know, that collaboration through technology can be incredibly beneficial for students. Some studies have shown, that using tech as a means for collaboration can give those that usually choose not to talk, a voice.]]> 2017-08-23 01:51:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mnmeyer/u3ue1akrgl53/wish/182230472 mnmeyer https://padlet.com/mnmeyer/u3ue1akrgl53/wish/182230619 I wonder if the tools we use actually increase learning or just the look of engagement....

Through many articles I read, it seems that students report, through interviews, that they enjoy working with technology and therefore interest and engagement is increased. This doesn't mean, however, that learning always increased.]]> 2017-08-23 01:52:48 UTC https://padlet.com/mnmeyer/u3ue1akrgl53/wish/182230619 mnmeyer https://padlet.com/mnmeyer/u3ue1akrgl53/wish/187804044 I wonder if certain tech tools can increase student comprehension and retention of texts.

Through the research from our Case Study, I have discovered that there are many tools that can help with supporting reading comprehension in students. A few of these programs include Achieve3000, Nearpod, ABRACADABRA and ePearl. ]]> 2017-09-15 02:41:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mnmeyer/u3ue1akrgl53/wish/187804044 mnmeyer https://padlet.com/mnmeyer/u3ue1akrgl53/wish/187804167 I wonder if technology can be utilized to better meet the needs of English Language Learners

I have realized, through the wealth of resources we have been exposed to, that technology can help to support English learners. By offering a wide variety of tools that offer word definitions, audio support, translation and images, technology can help support English language acquisition.]]> 2017-09-15 02:41:56 UTC https://padlet.com/mnmeyer/u3ue1akrgl53/wish/187804167
