10/5/2009 EFFECTIVE USE OF TECHNOLOGY IN THE CLASSROOM

Reflection pool at the Korean War Memorial in Washington, DC October 9, 2009

• Today we learned that DHMO is actually water, and can be bad for you! Actually, we took a critical look at websites as sources, and how you literally can't believe everything you read. We examined source bias and validity a bit through this exercise.

• We were also exposed to the site ReadWriteThink which offers creative interactive activities for K-12th grade students.

• Additionally we were given a desktop publishing assignment.
