Video on incorporating Handheld Devices into the Classroom

I wanted to include this video which I found during my research. It is an encouragement to see that a teacher's time and dedication to her students (of today's technological society) can accomplish and achieve these results.

Closing thoughts after completing EDUC 5203

I have completed an excellent course where I was able to explore technology in education. I chose to focus my research on handheld devices and assessment. As a teacher assessment was always something that caused a challenge, due to time constraints, completing outcomes and reflection on learning. I have learned through my studies that the iPad is a very useful tool to organize lessons and assessments of those lessons. I have explored various apps such as Evernote and penultimate to name a few and these have opened my eyes to a new world of teaching. My hope is to share this new found knowledge with colleagues in the Fall and grow together my incorporating this or other technologies in the classroom.

Included in this website are assignments, helpful teacher links and my research on assessment using technology. My focus was on the iPad and various apps that helped organize the teacher to better assess her student's progress.
