I think I could utilize technology many ways in a lesson plan. I could involve a smart-board in class everyday, invite kids up from the class so that they feel comfortable using the smart-board. Also, when I give students assignments, such as vocabulary words, they could put them on a class Wiki to prompt a class discussion. I could also use podcasts during class, or have students create their own podcasts. 
I haven't had much experience with copyright other than the disclaimer most teachers say before handing out a photocopied poem or picture. As a teacher, I would make sure my students know the importance of copyright and the danger in copyright infringement. I would definitely devote a lesson to making sure my students are in the know and don't abuse any copy right rules.

  1. I like you idea of incorporating the smartboard into your lesson plan. I didn't even think of that, but it's a really good idea. I know from experience that students always enjoy being able to use the smartboard :)

  3. I love Smartboards! They seem to be extremely effective in the classroom for interactive learning. The only problem is how expensive they can be, especially for larger-sized ones.

  5. I think that allowing the kids to use the smart board (depending on the age) is a risky choice...but good luck!

  6. I used a smart board in a lot of my high school classes. It helped a lot, so depending on the age group of the students using it, the smart board is really benefitial.

  7. I was glad that you mentioned a smart board. That is one thing that I had not thought about including in my classroom.
