Thing 2

At first glance, there is no denying that web2.0 has value. Any teacher, with 1 year under her belt or 30 can perceive that the digital age has arrived and our digital native learners require us to use available technologies to enhance the curriculum. As a district, most of our elementary classrooms are outfitted with interactive white boards, Neo Keyboards, document cameras, video projectors, teacher computers equipped with Internet access, DVD players and media players. Even still, there are numerous laptops available and iPods are becoming a norm to enhance learning and productivity. Professionally, most of these tools have made my time more efficient. Yet, there is still so much to learn. My biggest obstacle is finding the time to fully utilize the tools to mentor my teachers so that they may also feel comfortable enough to use them.
