Technology in the Classroom?

Hi Everyone-

How do you use technology in the classroom?

Please share some of your favorite ways to bring your content to life and engage your students using technology (from high-tech to low-tech ideas). 

Thanks!

    I love you tube. When I have some extra time after planning a lesson (especially a science lesson) I will go to you tube and find a video to explain one or two of the most challenging or most important topics. The students also are required to do several presentations throughout the program, and they do a great job using the internet to locate picture of skin disorders and major muscle groups. 

    I also have a jeopardy power point that we use for test reviews!!!

    I use the online courses the publishers provided for Mosby's Essential Sciences for Massage Therapy, and Pathology for Massage by Susan Salvo.  I assign students to look up research on pubmed  and report to the class.   We visit other massage experts web sites.  We also use discussion boards,

    We require students to build their own websites using www.wix.com.

    Before submission, we critique them in class (evaluation,creation level of Bloom's Taxonomy)
