Week 1 (January 5/11, 2014)

Trying this out for the first time. Technology will be the topic for these blog entries. Mostly, it will be related to technology in Education.

I think technology is a very important tool for schools. I've started using a SMART Board and I think it is great and it has so many more uses than I have had the chance to experience. But I hope to be able to learn more and more about it.

I have been introduced and reminded about many different "Tech Tools" from class and they include: Pinterest, Google Drive, YouTube, The "Cloud" and SMART Phones. I have a Pinterest and YouTube accounts and I have a SMART Phone. I am a supporter of all the positive things they can do and ways they can help educate and inspire. I admit, I have not used Pinterest very much yet but I really hope to use it more often in the future. Google Drive and The "Cloud" I am not sold on yet. As I continue on in this ICT class I will stay open-minded to the possible advantages of Google Drive, The "Cloud" and other "Tech Tools" I have not really experienced very much of yet.
