Profiling Students of Today

This week's assignment was to profile today's student population in regards to their use of technology and its potential in the classroom.  The survey created for this questioned students about their proficiency in using everything from cell phones to computers.  Not surprisingly, most students were proficient at texting and posting to Facebook but were unfamiliar with blogs, podcasts, and wikis.  If we, as educators incorporate these technologies into the classroom, we can diversify and differentiate our teaching to reach those students who are not as successful within the traditional confines of the classroom.  To hear more about my findings, you can click on the link:  http://sandradoty.podbean.com.
