About this book
Meet digital natives on their own turf!
Our students are already accustomed to constantly-evolving mobile technology and they crave more than what plain paper and pencil can provide. Veteran teacher, renowned author, and tech expert Mark Barnes shows educators how to use mobile devices and social media to create a win-win for teaching and learning. This inspiring resource describes how to:
- Mentor students in responsible use of technology
- Build students' aptitudes for critical thought and content curation
- Encourage collaboration beyond the classroom walls
- Easily learn and introduce new technology
Including real-life teaching examples and exciting K-12 lesson ideas, along with a teacher-friendly technology glossary.
The Corwin Connected Educators series is your key to unlocking the greatest resource available to all educators: other educators. Being a Connected Educator is more than a set of actions: it's a belief in the potential of technology to fuel lifelong learning.
"Any educator can?t go wrong by reading anything Mark Barnes writes! I?m a big fan of his books and what he shares online."
