chapter 6 response:
Based on the information in chapter six, I would prefer to have less digital technologies in my classroom.  I would still like to have a computer obviously, and a TV to play movies and shows for the students, also a smart board for my classroom, but nothing out of the ordinary. In my own personal classroom I would prefer less because of the simple fact that the subject matter I plan to teach is History. Teaching American history and government does not require the use of too much technology, besides the occasional movie, and notes every day with some interactive activities for the students. I plan on getting my students to reach the creative side of their intelligence through the use of fun group projects and hand-made posters and other such activities. therefor, the use of too much technology seems almost distracting to my students with my subject matter.
