- In the first part of the activity, what interesting uses of tools did you find? Describe an implementation of some technology that you hadn’t thought about using in that way!
I used the educreations tool. You can record and write on a tablet screen for online students. I wanted to record my voice for short daily teaching topics. I hadn't had the capabilities of doing this previously.
- If you did the extension activity, what did you try? What decisions did you have to make and did they matter? What would you do differently next time?
As an extension I had the students post responses in the discussion portion of the class shell. In this way the tool was interactive in a way that previously I was not able to do. Using the iPad in a new way was similar to the applications I saw about the use of iPads in the classroom.
