http://www.gladlywoulditeach.com/2010/02/07/technology-frustrations/ I learned how to become a better teacher by watching, listening, and questioning other teachers for over thirty years. Now that I am retired, it's my turn to pass on my strategies, philosophies, successes, and failures to others who may learn from my experiences.

By Friday's deadline, no less than 7 of my students needed a "swap," and forgot to save their final projects to the safe drive. Every day I have to fight kids on playing games, using proxy servers, and emailing/im'ing each other. Digital natives my fanny. More like digital romper room. I'm relieved we don't use Facebook - because I would be on it all day. :) I love the technology, and integrate it well; however, I still love the composition books for their archival, always at the ready mode. Except when they need a pencil. Sigh. :) We are a 1:1 computer school. By Friday’s deadline, no less than 7 of my students needed a “swap,” and forgot to save their final projects to the safe drive.
