All I can say is love it! It is amazing the way new technology allows teachers to use old teaching concepts and reproduce them in a method that will engage a new generation of learners. Things like blogs, wikis and YouTube are the equivalent to those things we did in class with the “fun teacher” that we all had. Not the teacher that said read this and answer this worksheet. But, the teacher that spent a third of her pay cheek finding fun and interesting ways to make learning fun and reach as many students as possible.
The only draw back to the introduction of these technologies into our classrooms is accessibility. As educators we must be careful to be sure that if we are going to introduce the technologies into our courses as methods of assignment completion. The resources are available to all of our students in the classroom. As all of our students may not have the necessary resources available to them outside of the classroom.
