Well i believe in some class rooms you can match the technology but in my classroom which is PE i dont think you can use the same technologies.
I think you can use text messaging in some cases. I believe that it can help to excite them in class but if you use it all the time i believe it can loose its luster with the kids.
For some students the text based might be better for them. i know i dont like to speak up in class this way they can just email the teacher or text them with their quesion. however in physical education class there is no place for it in my opinion.
Im up in there air on this one i think it could be good or bad it just depends on the kids that you have. Maybe its still just another way to passivily distribute info if i had to answer.
In PE there is no way a video game can help. you have to get out there and do it sitting on your butt all day is never good. i woud not let my children sit around and play video games all day they need to be out getting excersise.

Ross,
ReplyDeleteI still think technology can help PE class.
I think you can show a video to students about new techniques of physical education.
For example, if you teach football, you might show students how the Cowboys played against the Eagles. What did they do, what plan did they use to beat the Eagles? What should they have done in the different way to beat the Vikings?
Just a thought! :)
