2. Why all this technology stuff?
Our students need to acquire
21st century skills to be able to
succeed in our society.
Our students are digital
natives, it only makes sense
we use digital tools on a
routine basis to teach them.
Students no longer learn best
with paper and pencils, like
our natives once did.
3. Why all this technology stuff?
Using these and other
Web 2.0 tools will:
Help to engage students
and meet the needs of all
students.
Provide supplemental
instruction
Provided assessment
opportunities.
Help to meet the Common
Core Curriculum Standards.
