Technology being used in the classroom



This is a video about how Harrison High School uses technology in their classrooms. Students are using technology to explore the physics of sports (such as cheerleading and softball) and using computers and probes to collect data in local streams for science. I think what I liked best about their methods is their approach of finding a personal connection for each individual student. They had them use existing technology to delve deeper into their passions. These learning experiences are therefore meaningful and relevant to students. The students are invested and driven to explore their topics and further their understandings by using new technology.
