This is one of my biggest gripes - not integrating technology for the students. Educators use email daily, order online, plan vacations online, many have Facebook pages. We are in the know - and we do have an obligation to provide these opportunities for our students. We should hold ourselves accountable even if our school districts do not!

Great video. I will pass this on to some of my colleagues. Definitely gets you to thinking about what you’re missing out on without relevant technology in your classroom. How much more engaging the teaching would be! Thanks for this great resource. I agree with Doris; the red words really work for this presentation!

This was an absolutely excellent video. The word that resonates with me is richness. The music follows along with the message and strengthen the words. I like the touch of putting certain words in red. Evil cellphone come to mind. I’ve watch many videos over the last year and this presentation would cause any teacher, young or mature, to seriously consider using technology in the classroom. The video sets you up, if you say no to technology do you really want to “teach”? If you refuse to incorporate technology, self-examination is warranted and someone needs to hold us accountable. Should’nt we hold ourselves accountable? Great find and good title! Thanks
