Fall project ideas

How to implement technology in the classroom?   
    I've been feeling a little rushed to come up with some ideas for implementing technology into a unique lesson plan.  There are many tools out there as we continue to be exposed to them over the course of our program.  As a twelth grade social studies teacher, I have found numerous ways to implement technology.  I guess my quandry is finding a tool that will be dynamic and provide students with the tools they need.
   So far, I have been leaning on utilizing a lesson from the website Econedlink.org     This website provides quality lessons for students in a step-by-step basis for easy to understand processes.  I have used the website before and I like the methods and technology that it provides, especially the boxes to enter responses.  What could make the website even better would be some instant feedback.
   I am looking for tools to complement the lessons provided through econedlink, so I am anxious to hear some of the cool tool demos our class mates are providing.

  2. Aaron, I definitely understand your dilemma. There are so many tools that may be used with your students. The site you are utilizing has a large resource bank for you, especially the more tools option it provides. I too am excited about the cool tools that would complement the lessons for my students. I look forward to reading more about how you are using technology in your classroom.
