Assignment 1b

My name is Allison Wirth. I am a junior majoring in Elementary Education. I think that the use of technology in classrooms is a really good teaching tool. Since I will be teaching elementary students, it might be hard for my students to participate in school using technology depending on what grade I teach. After discussing blogs in class, I think that they are a great way to keep in touch with parents. A class blog could take the place of sending out weekly newsletters (which could save me lots of paper!) As an elementary school teacher, I would like to help my students learn the basics of some common computer programs that they could need in the future.
