My cooperating teacher has technology all over her classroom. Some examples are below:
- Smartboard: She uses this for students to take attendance by marking what lunch they would like that day. They also read the morning paragraph from this and it doubles as an overhead for the doc cam
- Doc Cam: She displays math problems, helps brainstorm different words, etc. This is used as an overhead
- CD Player and Tape Player: These are used for Listen to Reading during Daily Five. Each student has a set of headphones they keep in a bag with their name on it.
- Subtle microphone: She has a clip on microphone that she uses during mainly during tests so students have a better chance of hearing her clearly. She stands in the front and her voice comes out of the speaker in the back so her voice can reach all students in the classroom at a louder and clearer volume
- Website: As my technology project, I will be creating a classroom website for her to use. We are still in the beginning planning stages.
Those are just some of the many varieties of technology my cooperating teacher uses. Overall, she is very technologically literate and takes full advantage of technology to make learning more engaging and easier to communicate. I hope to have access to as much technology as she does one day.
