P.I.D's

some people are wondering if technology is OK to use during class and have questions like "what if there aren't enough P.I.D's (personal Internet devices) and some people cant do there work because of that, or what types of  applications do they use with the P.I.D's?" this is written to clear all those questions up and tell you why using technology is a good thing.

the first question i will answer is " what type of P.I.D's are there and what are they used for?"  there are various types of P.I.D's that are used through out the school year. we use iPad's, itouches, computers, ereader's and laptops/netbooks. P.I.D's are used for different things. we use these P.I.D's mostly for reading, finding information, finishing project's and posting post's on each others blogs. witch brings me to my next question to answer "what types of  applications do you use on your P.I.D's?" like the other answer this one has more than one that we use. the more popular ones are bitstrips, voicethread, edmodo, blogger, and g-mail. the other ones that aren't as popular but are still used are prezi, and extranormal. Prezi, bitstrips, voicethread, extranormal and blogger are used for projects. G-mail and edmodo are used to communicate with are teachers after school or over the weekends.

technology has and still is helping me and my class mates in many different ways. for example say your shy and don't like to read in front of people you can use voicethread and tell your story by there (with permission of course.) or say you have a question and non of your family members under stand you can go on g-mail and ask you teacher about it. a few challenges on using the P.I.D's are that sometimes on the iPads when posting a post on your blog sometimes they delete all of what you wrote but its OK because people don't get mad or anything like that. another challenge is that sometimes there aren't enough P.I.D's but every one is willing to share so that is not a problem.

i hope this hole  reflection convinced all people reading this that using technology during class is a good thing and i hope all of you reading this learned  few things  about using technology during class.
