Module 3 Reflection

This module has helped me think about the impact of the Internet on my students' learning in various ways. Not only can they communicate in new and sometimes more effective ways using the Internet (blogging, websites, etc.) but they can access a wealth of reliable information that would not necessarily be available to them otherwise. Considering how much this generation of students is going to rely on the Internet in countless ways, both in school and out of school, I think it would be a disservice to them not to incorporate it in their learning as much as possible. As long as we do this in valuable, relevant ways we can not only make technology integration a smooth and natural part of our classrooms but we can also make it fun and engaging for our students as well.
