Technology & Education

Technology can be a powerful tool for teachers and students to use in the classroom. I am interested in ways technology can support the learning of both teachers and their students.

Mini Group Research Project: What is the Impact of Technology on Teaching?

For our mini research project in Qualitative Research, , Autumn 2007, my group observed a fifth grade class and interviewed the teacher. The focus of our study was to investigate the teacher's use of the SmartBoard in the classroom. In the process of conducting this study, our group came in contact with some wonderful people from Whizz Education who develop lessons for SmartBoards in the UK. Check out their award winning software at www.whizz.com.
