Today I came across of blog by an individual titled ‘aquiram‘ titled ‘TECHNOLOGY USE’ (June 12, 2006). In this blog aquiram explores the idea that commonly school teachers only use the internet to
‘finalize papers….(and to) allow blantant copy-paste plagirism by our students’
and strongly questions why this is the case. Aquiram discusses the use of blogging, classroom wiki’s, research using the technology tools, and online assessment. I agree strongly with the rationale aquiram gave for the use of each of these in the classroom, especially blogging to provoke and encourage discussion, and online assessment for immediate feedback for students!
