Integrating Technology

If you are wanting to integrate more technology into your classroom but aren’t sure where to begin, you might want to check out the blog Technology Integration Made Simple. The author, Jennifer Gingerich, is an Educational Technology Consultant and writes on various simple ways to begin using more technology in your lessons. Most of her ideas appear to be geared toward the elementary grades, but one of her latest postings describes a website called Quizlet which was created by a high school student. It contains many pre-made flashcard sets on various subjects or you can create your own personal ones as needed. If you are looking for ideas, you will want to check out the site.

I really enjoyed checking out the Technology Integration Made Simple Website. In particular, I went to the Quizlet site and was very impressed with the potential it has for classroom use! I had fun trying all of the different flashcards that are already created for mathematics. I am definitely going to sign up and begin to create some flashcards of my own for my students to use. What a neat resource!
