Chapter 6:

I would love to teach in a classroom with more technology, especially after reading chapter six. Lots of technology in my classroom would help make my job easier. I could use graphic tablets as a fun and easy way to make images and other graphics throughout the school year. Also the electronic whiteboards would come in handy for myself and my students. I could let them use the whiteboard under my supervision. It would be a fun way to help my students learn the material. The data projects would also be a get device to have in my classroom. I could use it to project material I would want to teach, and it would be an easy way to do so.

Chapter 11:

There are several audio and visual technology devices I can use in my classroom. First, I could use the tables and chairs, my students could get into groups and create a learning group. Next, I can use internet radio as a way to keep things current and fun for my students. The internet radio would be fun for my students to listen to live broadcasts for educational purposes. I could also use print materials as traditional visual devices. It would be helpful for my students to make posters, charts, and worksheets. Then as a emerging visual device I could use digital projectors. It would be a fun and easy way to display my material that I would want to teach to the entire class.
