The document discusses ways that technology can be used to engage students in learning. It provides examples of how technology can be used to gain students' attention through visual and interactive presentations, illustrate real-world relevance, and engage students through hands-on production work. The document also lists specific technological tools that can be used, such as virtual manipulatives, online music programs, and interactive whiteboard games, as well as math-related activities using tools like Geogebra and Google Earth.

1. Expanding our Repertoire Deb Morton: Hillston Central School

3. “ We need more teachers who understand the role technology plays in society & in education, who are prepared to take advantage of its power & who recognise its limitations . In an increasingly technological society, we need teachers who are both technology savvy & child centered.”

4. Drill Research Presentation Entertainment Investigations Communication Collaboration

5. Gaining Attention -visual & interactive qualities Illustrating real-world relevance -thru highly visual presentations. Support manual operations -during high-level learning. Engaging them through production work -Pride in achievements Connecting them with audiences -for their writing (publishing online/video conferencing)
