Technology lesson:
====I created this lesson in order for students to choose their own path. We had just finished talking about taxes and I wanted them to share what they learned. I was a little disappointed with some of the projects, but I am hoping that as we advance in years of 1:1 I will see better and more creative projects.====

What is one thing you learned today that you plan to implement within your classroom? Please touch on how you think this will impact your students. (Due Friday at 3:30)

The Skills Tutor website is revamped and looks really nice. I am going to try to be more consistent using it in my classroom. Not only do I want to be more consistent, I want to incorporate it more fluidly into the curriculum. It is going to take some time to sit down and map out how this will happen. I think that the impact on students will vary depending on how each student learns. It will be a great differentiated instruction tool. The speed, pace, and direction the assignments go is all based on the students prior knowledge and their capacity and capability to learn the material.
