Purpose of the Blog

Welcome to Jessicca's technology blog. I have just begun my third year of teaching third grade in Roswell, Georgia. I am creating this blog as a means to share how I use technology in my third grade classroom. This blog will describe the different types of technology, how I chose to use specific types in correlation with curriculum standards, and the results of the use. I feel like technology integration is an important aspect to any classroom when preparing students for the real world. Technology provides a means to engage students and hook them into learning, as long as it is used correctly. Hopefully this blog can provide you with someideas on how to integrate technology or encourage you to begin integrating in your classroom. Additionally, I hope this blog can be used as way for others to share their ideas and suggestions with me so I can continvue to improve my practice.

Google Docs

I have found that one of the most challenging things about integrating technology into my classroom is planning the project to do. Using Google Docs for the PBL project has shown me a new, easy way for me to collaborate with colleagues (in this case peers) to plan a great project. I think that this is a perfect tool for those people who can't meet reguarly to discuss and document their plans. This tool allowed me to plan, contribute, and organize all of our ideas and documents in one place. I really enjoyed using Google Docs and hope to use it again in the future.
