Description
Whether you are a technophobe or an accomplished in integrating technology into your classroom, this book is for you. Using Technology in Middle Grades Language Arts will provide you with ideas for incorporating technology into your classroom for real results. There are practical "how to" tips and suggested activities, as well as scores of resources. Often teachers implement technology for the sake of meeting state or local standards. This text not only presents technology applications, but also facilitates reflections on your beliefs and motivation for implementing technology.
