Print Print this Article | Send to Colleague


Using technology to improve literacy and math skills for younger students takes very different strategies and tools than are typically used for middle and high school students. Our guests will discuss the best approaches for using digital devices, apps, and software for students in preschool through 5th grade, examining issues around how to balance the use of text versus multimedia, what types of online interactivity are most effective, and when technology should be turned off.
 
Guests: 
Suzy Brooks, fourth grade teacher, Mullen-Hall School, Falmouth, Mass.
Todd Nesloney, principal, Navasota Intermediate School, Navasota, Texas 

Moderator:
Michelle R. Davis, senior writer, Education Week/Digital Directions
