Assignment 2-1: thoughts about the articles
It's obvious that technology becomes more and more important in our daily life. It is crucial that school integrated technology into teaching so that students can adapt to the digital world soon. Before teaching students technology tool, it's no doubt that teacher needs to know how to use it themselves first. Nevertheless, many teachers still keen on using traditional teachers as they get used to their way of teaching. They are lacking the skill or knowledge to integrate technology into teaching and there is no motivation for them to spend more time to learn new things. In my opinion, I suggest schools should set requirement for teachers to update their teaching skills especially in learning new technology integrated teaching. Moreover, school should provide sufficient technology support so students can easily get access to practice new literacy skills to apply to their school work.
Assignment 2-2. Write a paragraph on how ELA teacher can use Edmodo to enhance their ELA instruction.
ELA teacher can use Edmodo as a social platform between teacher and students. Teacher can share content on post notes function for students to enter their feedback. This can help encourage students to practice their language skills, spelling and grammar through the conversations in this social platform. Teacher can organise a reading group to encourage student to read and discuss about the stories or articles they read with their group peers. Teacher can utilise Quiz builder or poll feature to assess students. Learning and understanding of a lesson.
