What is 3T’s?  

•      A learning approach that includes teaching with technology  whereby students from around the world will be able to interface simultaneously to carry out a lesson

•      An approach to using technology as a means of actively engaging  in learning                              (i.e. digital storytelling, websites, blogs, wikis)

•      The ability to connect around the world, communicate, and travel without leaving the classroom

•      An opportunity to utilize modern technology in our everyday world  

How will it affect the way we teach?

Teaching will now include:

• LIVE distance learning lessons with classrooms in another city, state, and even country

• SMARTBoards

• Webcams

• Digital Storytelling

• Podcasts

• Wiki's

• Blogs

• and so much more

When and how will it go into effect?

      Our goal is to get you, as the teacher, to begin using technology as a means of teaching.  The sooner we begin to implement technology in our daily lessons; the sooner students will show an enthusiasm towards learning.  Certainly, it will take some extra planning, but it is not impossible. Begin by surveying the technology your students are already using in their daily lives. Then, incorporate that technology into your lessons. Finally, thrive on becoming a digital learner just like students of the 21^st century.

Its time to throw out the markers,

save the paper,

lose the text books,

 and become 21st century learners!!!!!
