Great dialogue here between many teachers. This is a great read.
When designing lessons that consist of technology, teachers should ask themselves two questions: (direct quote from the article cited below)
“1. How will this technology contribute to the students’ overall learning and development in a way that traditional means cannot?
2. Does the use of technology in this assignment stimulate students to discover new ideas, concepts, and theories in a manner that can eventually develop to deeper understandings of other topics?”
