My classmate Veronica shared this with me and I got a good laugh out of it. It mocks Apple commercials but I relate it to trying to make a student excited about using a textbook when there are so many digital alternatives out there and textbooks will be obsolete in the years to come.

I think Google Forms would be a great addition to any classroom in all subject areas. It is a great way to see what students are thinking, where the misconceptions are in their learning, and a good way to collect various data. It is easy to use, but the only down side I can see is you need to have 1:1 devices in order to assess the entire class where as some technology such as Plicker allows for whole class assessment simultaneously .

Learning should be fun.
I play many roles in my job: teacher, advocate, communicator, collaborator, comedian, etc. This blog is my journey as a teacher, lesson ideas, and reviews.
