Week of 4-11: Marcie
Week of 4-18: Gail

Week Six Questions

After reading these articles I was trying to think of ways that all these technology advances with iphones and ipod touches and cell phones. could relate to the elementary schools.  Yes, these advances are compatible with a computer or lab top however, they are still cellular telephones.  There were many examples of how these new tools were incorporated into many college campus for students to use.  However, I am struggling to think of many positives of introducing these into an elementary school classroom.  If we have students using them in college then they need to be educated, but when is it a good time to begin educating students on these new technology advances?

Define mobile computing.

Hey guys

So I think it would be a good idea to write down the schedule of when and who is suppose to post for each week.  This way it will allow everyone to stay on track.  For example, due refers to the questions being due by the Monday.  The blog posts from each of us are due Friday by 8am.

Steph - Week 5 Due Monday 2/28
Ericia - Week 6 Due Monday 3/7
