No technology?

Here is a school that has no technology whatsoever in it. Also in this video says about the parents views of sending their child to a school like this.

I found this video interesting as i thought that all schools had technology in them and also that most parents don't mind their children using technology. This video shows that children don't need technology to learn well. An advantage of children going to school is that they will learn more practical skills and activities as this is what their lessons are based on. Also because of their lesson plans they will also learn to maybe communicate better as they will be doing more teamwork than an average school. Although a disadvantage to going to this school would be that the children may not have access to technology anywhere else much so therefore they could fall behind in society when they leave school as society is based around technology.

Blog Review: Box Of Tricks

The blog that i am going to review is called Box of Tricks. This blog that i have found i think is good and very useful because it provides tips and advice of different teaching methods  when using ICT for teachers and teaching assistants. I feel that having this blog as part of my blog will give myself and also others to also gain tips and advice from it. it can help myself and fellow students to improve our practice within school settings when it comes to using ICT. This blog is important for people to read i think as it talks about and is based on using technology within classrooms, and using technology within classrooms is what happens today as it is always increasing. This blog mentions may useful tools that can be used by teachers and also students which can improve their practice and learning when using technology. For example on tool that this blog mentions is called Glogster. This is used to create and share posters, videos ect. This will be useful for teachers as they can use this as part of the lesson, whether this means them making one for the lesson plan and using it within the lesson to teach the children about using this site, whilst learning about the technology involved within it.
