first entry

The creation of this blog came around due to the requirements of an educational technology classs I am taking as part of my Master's program.  Originally, I was going to focus on math but our superintendent announced beginning in August, the school will begin participating in the one to one apple computer program.  Based on early responses, it appears we are not going to get the time we need to really prepare so rather than whine, I am being proactive and taking it upon myself to learn how to integrate computers into my class so my students will learn to use the technology effectively.  This class will also help me bring up questions when its time to write policy, etc.  I want to make sure I am using computers and the internet as effectively as I can to help their learning.
