Why “Ten Things to Think”?

Sometimes it is difficult fort4
teachers interested in using technology in the classroom to know where to start. There are endless tools, software, hardware, and people who will insist they have the solution, the right thing for your students, the technology everyone needs to know how to use. While I have my favorite tools and software I could tell you all about, I think it is more important to start out with ways of thinking. Learning the ins and outs of tools and hardware will be daunting and meaningless without first establishing how you think about using technology. You need to find what is right for you, and these general things to think will give you a framework and a starting point. Then, the possibilities are endless to have a great experience with technology in your classroom. I hope they are helpful to you in your technology adventures.

There is a main document which can be downloaded here. Also if you visit http://msu.edu/~kelleral/T4.html there is more information and supporting documents including a poster and a lesson checklist available. All of these things are in an early draft, I have planned edits that will be up this summer. If you have any suggestions or comments, please leave them here or email me (kelleral@msu.edu).
