  • Blog
    • What concept or idea intrigued you most in this weeks' readings? How/does it impact your thinking about the questions and issues that you're interested in exploring in this class?



  • In class
    • Pay Attention: video from TeacherTube
      • What are some of the considerations around using "the technologies that students love" in the classroom? (focusing specifically on the ICTs that we've been examining in class)
      • Are there specific ICTs (or types of ICTs) that lend themselves better to being taken up in the classroom context, and if so, why?
      • Should we be eager to integrate every popular youth technology into teaching and learning?
