“I love technology!” I think that it was a great idea to have the students have email buddies in a different state. This teaches them so many aspects of technology in a fun, unobtrusive way. It will teach them how to use email, upload pictures to a blog, make blog entries, use digital cameras, and possibly voice threads. I think it is good because you are teaching practical technology use integrated with curriculum. This will make the concepts taught more applicable and memorable. I also liked how they were able to make comparisons between different parts of the United States of America. This is great because the students need to learn about different parts of the world but they are most likely unable to travel and visit these places. I also liked the idea of the class making a book using a computer. This is a fun way for the children to demonstrate when they know and an easy assessment for the teacher to grade.
