PLS, Hobbs, and ELA/NCTE

I feel like everything in common with the three readings is that technology needs to be reinforced in the classroom in some way, shape, or form....simple as that. It's crazy knowing that being an up and coming teacher I have to really try hard to get my students interested in work and wanting to do work and acheiving this would mean I need to get going on my technology skills and get them up to date as well. When you think of technology though I was thought the computer, but all three of those sources don't only reinforce the computer or internet, but watching movies and putting a spin on it or doing a writing assignment and putting a creative spin on it. If you can make assignments as creative as possible using any type of technology they want then you have your students hooked (within reach and ok'ed by the teacher, but only my opinion).

Hey Ashley,

You made that post as simple and to the point as possible. All the readings were in commong and you are right, one way or another we have to incorporate technology in the classroom.

I always have this fear that when I go to student teach I am going to get up in front of the classroom and none of the students are going to be engaged in conversation with me. Since students are so involved with technology now and have so much to say about it, hopefully my fears won't become reality when it comes time to teach.

Isn't is sad how much children hate school? Here I am reading books for pleasure and for class and for so many kids out there, it's like having to rip out teeth to get them to read.
