Bob Affonso (1999) < www.sierrasource.com/cep612/internet.html > [7 Dec 04]
|
Weekly |
Lawrence Anter |
| This site is an article on wether or not the internet
affects the social skills of children. The notable features of this site is
are the different sections it is broken dow into (Just the Facts, Questions
Arise, Is it addictive, Effects On Our Children, Encouraging Trends,
Awareness Is the Key, and the Conclusion). Notable Quote: "Despite the
alarm, research indicates most children are doing fine." I like this site
because as a fifth grade teacher that encourages his students to use the
internet I want to know that I am not sending them down the wrong path. |

Internet." The reason I like this site for the topic of bringing the
internet into the classrooms is because it is a great example of Global

Environments
Jamie McKenzie (1998) < www.fno.org/mar98/flotilla.html > [1 Dec 04]

Weekly |
Lawrence Anter |
| This website begins by discussing the idea that having a
classroom that is wired for the internet doesn't mean that the technology
will necessarily enhance students learning. The site goes on to explain what
a technology enhanced, student-centered classroom is. A notable feature is
the different possibilities for arranging your classroom computers. A great
quote is, "Entirely too much attention has been devoted to the wires and the
cabling, to the business of connecting classrooms to the Internet. Too many
public figures have climbed upon this bandwagon as if the mere act of
networking would create some miracle." I like this site because it shows
what a technology enhanced student-centered classroom looks like. |

with a certain number of brain cells and, therefore, a genetically
predetermined intellectual capacity. New research, however, appears to
refute some of those assumptions.” This is interesting to me, because I know

Timothy McKean |
| This page is simply Mr. Pedroni's Masters thesis on
technology and education. This paper is intended to examine the use of
modern technology, into the acquisition and transfer of knowledge, using
resources from the World Wide Web in some elementary schools. It will also
serve to determine whether this new way of accessing knowledge is a
beneficial tool in aiding students to a higher level of achievement, because
they are more engaged in their learning activities. The Internet has the
ability to erase all geographical, languages, and time barriers so that
students can continue their learning long after leaving the school grounds.
Several projects are described, including projects by people other than
educators. He discusses the WWW, e-mail, and the role of the classroom
teacher. While a bit old, he has some interesting ideas. |
