Non-Computer Tech Use in Classroom
CD player and a DVD player ia a great non-computer tech that is used in the classroom.I think that these techs might get used just as much as the computer well at least the CD player.
The reason why this is suck a great tool is that students can read along with a book at a quite center. Also they can listen to music at the music center. Students can spend some time to themsevels at a center with using a CD player and headphones. TEacher can also use the CD player to teach children the states by sing a song from a tape/CD.
A DVD player or a tape player can allow students to sing to a song from reading the words at the bottom of the screen. Some lessons are on DVDs for example there is a DVD that teaches children how to speak in spanish,what a great way to teach children. (books on tape/CD can do that too)

After presenting on my topic and and listening to various ERIC research projects I have learned a lot of new things about technology in and out of the classroom. I'm a hands on type of learner, and I would rather not use a computer if i did not have to but after listening to some of the various ERIC research projects. I would have to say that I would not mind using some of the technology.
One concern that i still have is the interent safety having students online is a hurge risk and the younger the student, more mistakes. I say that because they dont have the experiences, as the older students. Im sure they are coming up with more safety tips for students and techers.
e-portfolio is one topic that I really think is a great thing for students and teachers. The group that talked about e-portfolios did a great job! I really understand the e-portfoloios and would like to bring that into my furture class.

The website that I found was for teachers and students in a elementary classroom.


This website brings Elementary school technology education resources into the classroom. The site had two links that went for teachers and students. In the teacher site there was four different sites that teacher could go to help them become a better teacher and to assist the teacher with technology. There was Interactive website, informational links, other school programs, and additional resources. The student’s page had the first three mentions. This is a really great site and very informational.



Due to difficulties, some reason my link does not appear. This was the site that I tried to link:
