My own personal assignment is:
Watch or read through two of the links below and discuss what they talk about in your own words and whether or not you agree or disagree with them and tell why or why not. (A paragraph for each link you use please and you must choose at least two).
Then in your own words I would like you to write about some of the good and bad sides to technology in education. Is it more harmful or useful? After writing out your pros and cons pick the side that you agree with and defend it. (This should be one to two paragraphs).
The Links:

This link is a column written by MICHAEL S. MALONE and is called Young People Cop to It: Technology Is Bad for Us (Read what he is saying and really think about weather you agree with him or not.)

Hi Tiphanie!
ReplyDeleteI really like your blog, and I think you did well on this assignment. It seems like you really thought about the assignment, and what would benefit EDM 310. I also like the project that the students did in Lagomarsino's 5th period class. Very creative, and unique!
I hope you are successful with the remaining weeks left in this semester!
You blog looks great! Keep up the good work! :)
Thanks I hope you are successful in the remaining weeks also and that you have a nice Christmas break! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for a blog assignment. This type of assignment causes students to really think about the issues surrounding technology in education. What are the pros. and cons. of technology in education? What do you believe? Why? SS
