I think educational technology is integrating technology into students learning through interaction, experiences, connections, and relationships. Through frequently offering students the opportunity to think critically while utilizing technology in meaningful experiences they will truly learn and constantly build upon that knowledge.

Wow loved the videos on the blog this week!!

I think we are on the right track, and these videos just refreshed my urgency for collaborating with teachers to help them understand how important integrating technology into the classroom really is! I loved the quote by Albert Einstein "We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." We have to teach our students how to think critically, because the world is progressing very fast! We cannot allow our students to think and reason the way we did, but we must push them to think critically and create! We need to prepare them for the future! I loved the section of the second video over cell phones in the classroom! Let's harness technology for engaging students, offering students experiences, and connecting students. Let's not ban this powerful learning tool. Technology!
