Reflections and Comments on the Use of Technology in the Classroom. Thursday, June 10, 2010. One of the assignments for students in my 8th grade "Techno Savvy" class is to create a podcast.

When asked to use the Internet to research a topic most students at the middle school level automatically go to Google. To help them understand that there are other search engines I challenged them to try Bing for a research project we started today. So, what did they do? They used Google to search for Bing:-) It was a funny moment. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). 7th Grade Class Blog / News Story Podcast Unit.
