How can you effectively integrate technology into your teaching and learning?

I think we’ve learned that to successfully integrate technology into our classroom it must assist with the lesson, not be the lesson itself. Also, I think by incorporating an activity a day involving technology it is effective, because it’s allowing kids use the tools they use best, as well as giving you time to teach “traditionally”. The article covering Type 1 and Type 2 technologies gave a lot of insight about this subject, as well as the team presentations regarding the types of technology. By having these examples in class we saw some great ways of integrating technology. One concern I have about this topic is trying to “force” technology into my lessons. I feel there are just some lessons that don’t require the use of technology, but I’ve felt that Dr. Grace is making us use technology where it doesn’t exactly fit so it makes our lessons seem “clunky”.
