Blog Entry #2: Group Technology Tools

One way to make a class more interactive and fun for students is group presentations using technology tools. Not only do they break the monotony of class lectures but they also give students hands on experience with said programs (PowerPoint, Prezi, etc.). Giving students the responsibility to put projects together also teaches management and organizational skills needed throughout their entire lives and gives them a chance to work and meet fellow students they may not otherwise interact with. These are also tools that will be used across a wide range of careers and situations. As society grows more and more dependent on technology students will need to be exposed to it more and at earlier ages. Working with group technology tools used across laptops, desktops, and mobile devices will give them a wide range of experience across multiple platforms, ensuring they will be familiar and competent in their use.
