Technology and Literacy



 Computer technology can enhance a reading program. I have always thought of reading just as reading books but after reading this chapter my thoughts have changed. I look forward to enriching the lesson by further study into the author or by enhancing the reading by allowing the students to delve deeper into you the places that the book takes them or thee characters. I think that this chapter helps me further understand the purpose of our author study and how that would enhance the students learning. Part of my personal improvement plan has been to enhance my use of technology by becoming more familiar with the different literature sites that are available and presented in chapter 12 of the textbook. There were on abundance of sites presented I have made a plan to try to visit at least two a week. I look forward to learning which ones I can incorporate into my curriculum.
Teaching students citation is extremely important Google notebook is a free and easy to use online tool that allows students to collect information in one location. I will be able to install Google notebook and put an icon in the computer so that the students can easily cite their sources.WOW I just went to explore Google notebook only to find out it is no longer available and Google Docs has taken its place.
