I/Pad, Google Docs, you tube, Make Belief com ix and Edmodo are all easy tools to use in the classroom. I will use Google Docs for projects and collaboration and  I will use I/pod/Pad for recording the students conversations, so they can improve their pronunciation.
.My thinking about learning has been revolutionized to include all these tools that will motivate and engage the students and will help them to take control of their learning, so they will become problem solvers.
Finally, the environment in the classroom will be geared toward structure and efficiency and learning will be enhanced.

I will teach the students to use the Internet safely and to be careful about what they publish on the Internet because it will affect their reputation for ever. Furthermore, I will teach them to avoid plagiarism and cyber bullying by designing lessons plans and using the BSD collected information and videos for teaching students about digital citizenship.i will use the i safe program because it is a resource available to Spring Branch students and teachers.
one of the resources mentioned and that I planned to use is the atomic learning. I will teach the students to ignore bullers to treat people the way that they want to be treated.In addition,I will tell them to use good manners while leaving a blog post.Furthermore,we can watch a video about digital citizenship. parents will be informed with a letter that highlight the good digital citizenship.

Technology should be aligned with the objective because it makes it easier for the students to learn and master the objective. Students should be held accountable because accountability is very important for motivation and learning. when students write conversations in class, they are held accountable by recording it
In addition, when the students review websites, they are held accountable by writing a summary about it.
I like to use the francais interactive because the students can click on the answer and has matching activities,completing dialogues and watching videos..
Good sites for using their/ I pod/I pad are Animoto because it turns pictures into beautiful music videos and I like audio boo and audio pal to record the students' conversations.

I like to use the I/pod/ I pad to record the student's conversations. We write a lot of conversations in my classes after mastering every chapter and every tense and audio recording through audio boo is a good way to improve their pronunciation and preparing for competitions.Furthermore, i will introduce one devices at a time with clear guidelines and procedures on how to pick up and return the devices.In addition, i don't know how many and what devices i will have in my classroom.
