How interesting! To answer your questions, I integrate technology in my classroom through the use of games, videos, and formative assessments as well as fun projects. It reminds me of my Geology teacher who used Mentimeter to have fun check-ins and make sure we were understanding all the content. It really helped me focus and have fun in his class. Of course, I'd use technology sparingly such as 1 main project on technology or 1 day out of the week that focuses on putting the week's lesson in a formative assessment game. It's all about balance.

I loved the presentation and article! I think that I would mostly depend on traditional media in my classroom and use technology occasionally. I am not 100% sure on that though, so we will see! I think that I would use technology to engage with my students by introducing trivia games, digital art, and animations/videos that are informational.

Hi Lilia! This was a very interesting read! My favorite method that was mentioned in the article is flipped learning. Not only will students who are absent benefit from it, but so will those who need reassurance on a lesson or tutorial. It is also great for us as the teachers because we could use the time to maybe help students who need more guidance than what is shown in the tutorial videos we make for lessons.

Great Presentation ! I think that my favorite method to integrate technology in my future classroom will be as a formative assessment. One of my favorite websites/apps is Kahoot. I think that it is so fun for students to play ,but also so helpful for teachers to know what it is that students understand and what they need help with.

Awesome presentation ! As a students I think that it is always fun when teachers tried to incorporate technology in the classroom since it is something that most of us are familiar with. One of the things I used the most that it was mention in the article is google drive, I think that google drive is so helpful since it allows my teammates and I to work on our projects even when we are not in the classroom which is so helpful since sometimes we do not have much time during class.

Introducing technology in the classroom is an interesting thing to tackle, and teachers have to be more creative with their assignments than others. There are a large range of assignments and activities to do with students depending on their age and skill level. Some activities include animation, whether drawn or stop motion, digital art on drawing apps, and photography.
