Week 6 Topic 3

What are your thoughts on the use of Google Hangout for tonight's class?  If you were to use this, or a similar platform, in your own class, what "lessons learned" would you apply?

Week 6 Topic 2

In an ideal world, we would have access to technologies and learners who are capable of using them to their maximum extent when designing technology-enhanced lesson plans.  As we all know, this often is not the case.

What are some examples of tech-failures from your own teaching or the teaching of your peers? Examples might included hardware that did not work as intended after major investment, lack of access to critical software as required by a lesson, or the denial of the use of hardware or software by your administration.  How was this problem addressed at the time?  What might you do differently (or suggest be done differently) now?

Week 6 Topic 1

In your school, are there any aspects of digital citizenship that are not being addressed, but should?  How might you address this need, given some of the tools you now have at your disposal?
