Technology Integraton: The Digital Classroom

I found this graphic recently. It was created by Susan Oxnevad for a presentation at the Illinois Computing Educators Conference.  The focus of the presentation was on the many ways teachers are integrating technology info learning environments.  The fact that the tools are digital means that they can be offered to and used by students anywhere, anytime.

I wanted to share it with you for several reasons.  First, it encompasses many of the things we've covered in this course from the perspective of real classroom teachers who are successfully using technology to improving student achievement.  Second, it is a great example of a teacher developed graphic and teacher-developed presentations.  Next, it shows how generous teachers are sharing information--not just at conferences, but through blogs and social media with anyone interested no matter where they may be.  Finally, it is a good example of using Thinglink--one of the tools in your challenges--to present information in a non-linear way.
