Meaningful Connections: Using Technology in Primary Classrooms
Murphy, Karen; DePasquale, Roseanne; McNamara, Erin
Young Children, v58 n6 p12-18 Nov 2003
A teacher educator introduces issues around using technology with primary children. Two teachers then describe science units they created that integrate technology through purposeful, hands-on activities, including children writing an online newsletter, exploring the Internet guided by tracking software, creating webs using webbing software, doing research on a TrackStar-managed Web page, and creating slide shows. This article is available online in Beyond the Journal, November 2003.
