Introduction

Greetings from your English teacher, Mrs. Cannady. Feel free to contact me at Whitewater Middle School between the hours of 8:45-10:15 a.m. at 770-460-3450.
I began this blog while attending the University of West Georgia. It was a project I began for course I took while earning my Specialist Degree.

Significant Postings from the Blogging Experience

The postings that most help define my blog are two videos. The first is a video is my technology movie. The video summarizes how I feel about using technology in my classroom. I’ve always felt strongly about using technology in the classroom. Technology can be used in many ways as an integral part of the curriculum to meet the needs of diverse learners. The second video demonstrates the use of Interwrite Pad. I recruited the math teacher on my team since she is fortunate to have a Pad in her room. Technology tools are defined as materials, media, and devices that can potentially increase, maintain, or improve students’ functional capabilities, access to instructional activities, meaning-making, and motivation. As I was introduced to new technology tools in MEDT 7464, I attempted to demonstrate use of the tools by posting an application to my blog.
