I am a fan of technology in education. I love Linux and the applications for classroom use. Computers are wonderful tools. This idea of the computer being a tool is key. We can have computers and the most fabulous software. If technology does not add to what we want to specifically teach and guide student learning based on learning standards, why have it?
I use the California Academic Content Standards to guide my teaching. It only makes sense to apply those standards to the activities I have my students working on while they are on the computers. During my first year with this lab, I have been able to integrate writing and research in science. My students were engaged in learning and stayed on task.
