Jennifer G replied to Aaron Maurer's discussion Skype Video Project Ideas"Great use of technology! I would love to hear more about what you all did at your schools.

Jennifer G replied to Laurie Pitcher's discussion Virtual Field Trips"Great post! Thank you for sharing. Virtual field trips are a great way to incorporate technology into the classroom and a fun way to take students on a field trip when you all are not physically capable of doing so. Some other great sites for…"
Jennifer G replied to Diana Hansen's discussion Does technology bring connections or stress?"I think that technology causes too much stress for teachers and prohibits students from focusing on what's important...learning. For teachers using new technology, you have to think about whether or not the kids are safe using this type of…"
Jennifer G replied to Knox Phillips's discussion Anyone ever tried working with data visualization or interactive maps in a classroom setting?"I think you should go for it!

I think the use of…"

Jennifer G replied to Jennifer West's discussion Phones In classrooms"I think cell phones don't belong in the classroom. They are a major distraction and are not worth the trouble they can cause.

Jennifer G replied to Susan Wells's discussion iPod Touch Schoolwide Implementation"Maybe I'm old fashioned, but why not just use books, pencil and paper instead? I just feel like the use of the ipod touch in the classroom seems to create more problems than it does to help. I feel like these devices would only cause more…"
Jennifer G replied to Carolyn Mahan's discussion When should 'new technology' be brought into the classroom?"I think new technology should be brought into the classroom when it has been proven to actually benefit the education of students and not just entertain them. I also feel that the implementation of this new technology should not break the…"
Jennifer G replied to Christine Gowen's discussion Interested in using Skype with elementary students..."I agree with the points that you brought up. Safety and security are definitely issues.
