Improving a Lesson Through Technology

Lecturing isn't the only way to go anymore. Students need stimulation if they are going to succeed in the classroom. Through technology, I believe teachers can keep their children engaged. Personally, I would improve lessons by engaging children through the internet. Like this class required me to have a blog, I'd like my class to do the same. With their blog, I'd want them to post five things they want to know about the subject I'm about to teach and five things they did learn about the subject. That's just one thing I'd do to keep the kids engaged outside of the classroom. In the classroom, I'd make use of the internet through Youtube, history.com, and other sites to help engage the kids.
