I was motivated by the opportunity to have a set of chromebooks in my classroom next year. I hope to learn how to apply things I learn here to my classroom and curriculum next year. I'd like my students to become proficient on the newer pieces of technology that could encourage them to try more rigorous and creative projects. I'm not afraid to try anything. I know you can't hurt the tech device, unless I throw it at a wall or the floor in frustration! I use whatever happens to be available- laptops, chromebooks, the SmartBoard....
