Technology 101: Using New Technologies in Your Classroom
Wednesday, Sept. 29; 11:30-1p.m.; 215 ECIT, Woodruff Library
Three new technologies — Luna’s Insight, Google Docs, and the iPad — offer new opportunities for collaboration and new ways of learning. This workshop features the keys to best use of three new technologies in the classroom: Luna’s Insight, Google Docs, and the iPad.
Luna’s Insight is for organizing, categorizing, editing and presenting images pulled from the web.
Google Docs and Google Groups can be used in tandem to create an online “place” for class content to be collaboratively developed, edited and shared.
And the iPad offers a new type of portability, plus possibilities of new learning dynamics through its endless applications.
