Playing with technology

This class is giving me a huge opportunity to connect my burgeoning interest in technology with learning...for learners at any age. I am already enjoying working with undergraduates (whom I have not taught in a number of years) in EDT 400. The trick will be to connect the learning—schools and students for half the class and clients for the other half of the class—and the technology. How do they work together? How much of what we do will also assist our own adult lives as well as our professional lives?

Struggling a bit with the content of this blog and what the focus could or should be. I guess my description on the title page says it all...learning and teaching. Perhaps the technology makes it easier for the learning to take the uppermost hand, because it forces the teaching to be secondary. Can't do too much frontal teaching when the technology forces us to jump in with both feet and simply try things out.
