Article - How to Integrate Technology

I love all the suggestions this article gives for using technology in the classroom. Because all classrooms are not created equally It's hard to know how to use technology with what is available. Before reading this article I was thinking I don't have a lot of technology in My Classroom. While I was reading this I was thinking I do have technology I just need to utilize the tech I do have. I do have a smartboard and access to a cart of laptops for my who class. I loved the idea of having one of the students be the class scribe. the students could rotate through and this could be a class one of the class jobs for the day. This article really made me want to work some of the theses ideas into my lessons.
