I am more than impressed with the amount of technology that these students are using daily! Even when I was in high school, I was not using near as much technology as they seem to be using in just half of a day! The use of wikis is a great way to not only let the children learn, but also let others (like the people from Alabama) put in their input as well! I couldn't believe that there were children using SmartBoards, when just a few weeks ago, some students in our class were learning to use them for the first time! Just think: If they can use technology this well in 1st grade, how competent will they be by the time the graduate? The answer to that question is unknown, but I would be willing to bet that they will be among the top of the graduating class when it comes to technology literacy!

First - an aside. The Symphony last Saturday was SUPER MAGNIFICENT. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteNow Ms. Cassidy: :but I would be willing to bet that they will be among the top of the graduating class when it comes to technology literacy." But will they be among the top learners? I hope so!
Thank you Dr. Strange for attending! I think it might be one of the best concerts that Mobile Symphony has ever performed! Next year might rival it though: Carmina Burana!
ReplyDeleteI am sure that they will be among the top learners! Technological literacy and learning seems to come hand in hand!
Brandon,
ReplyDeleteI agree wholeheartedly that the students today are using so much more technology then when I was their age. And as time goes on there will be much more technology and I believe that the age that we use technology will become even younger than it is now.
