Type I and Type II Technology

Type I allows educators to continue to teach in the same fashion but add a computer screen. The results are pretty much the same but this allows teachers to say they use technology in their classrooms. Type II usage of computers allows students to think out side the box and enhance their learning and understanding.

Type I examples: 1) online multiple choice 2)the use of word programs 3) online copies of rubrics and study guides
Type II examples: 1) blogging instead of written work 2) saving trees by not printing :) 3) online communication for group projects
