Week 7

i. What is the role of technology in creating dynamic experiences for your students?
Technology brings a whole new view to the students. It creates interaction and variety in the classroom. It makes things more interesting and more exciting to learn about.
ii. What are some ways that technology might actually detract from student learning?
Technology could detract from student learning if it is too dynamic. It could just be too complicated for the students to understand or use. Therefore, it would just be a nuisance instead of interactive.
iii. What are three examples of effective technology use that you have used or experienced?
I feel that the digital story technology is definitely beneficial and would be a productive learning source for students. I also feel that just simple technology such as a computer is effective for the students because it helps them have hands on experience. I also feel that movies on a projector is successful as well because it grabs the students attention where they will be more receptive to what is being taught.
