Incorporating Technology in the Classroom

The word "Technology" scares many in the teaching profession. It shouldn't do this because technology is so much fun! My students are more engaged when they are able to complete an online task or activity. I try to incorporate online activities in some aspect during my lesson for the students to use their tablets. Today we used Quizlet.com to independently study for a test they are having tomorrow on the Industrial Revolution. I modeled ways that they could study and what studying involves before allowing them to explore. They loved it! Even my students who are not really interested in studying found enjoyment in the online studying format.
