This blog tells you about technology producing a decline in critical thinking and analysis?

Also this blog tell you about a different perspective.

And this one for the last.


My opinion with all these blogs is that it does help us because it helps us understand technology more better, and our hand eye coronation, but i don't think its improves our critical thinking.

ABC news:

- What did you think about the study abc news did? It was really cool, and made me think about how teachers used to always tell me to stop moving and pay attention.

- Do you agree with their findings? Yea all the way.

- How does LMA meet or not meet students need to fidget? we get bouncy balls, fidget toys, and rubber bands at the bottom of our chairs, that's more then I have ever had at any other school.

-What programs are in place at LMA? If you don't know yet, what questions might you have? bouncy balls, toys, special room.

- What do you wish school and teacher better understood about the way you need to learn? I need to be able to walk around the room, and i like to work in the dark.

Edmodo;;

Coolest website, ever. you would not believe what teachers can find.
=
- How could this be used in the classroom? You can talk to your teacher on this and nobody will know what you are saying. You don't have to call you teacher if she is online.

- Would this enhance class discussion or distract from it? Enhance, because I would ask more questions to you, so i don't have to be shy in asking aloud questions.

- Do you think EdModo could catch on in large classrooms? Oh, Yeah I think it would.

- How would it help or distract you as a learner? You might get addicted.
