What does “Integrating Technology into Teaching and Learning” mean to you?

Integrating technology into teaching and learning means using various types of technology to deliver lessons and instruction to students, thus in return students will use various modalities of technology to learn and exhibit their understanding of what was taught.  For example, after teachers have taught a subject, using different types of technology during instruction, students at Central Middle School in Devils Lake research more on that topic and then create digital stories on iPads presenting what they learn.  Students first research the topic, then plan and organize the facts and information on paper, then find digital photos on the iPad that match the text and finally record their voice by explaining the photos and information learned.  The final projects are then projected on the Smartboard to the whole class.
