sites, or tools used to develop the minds of our students

Kindergarten technology
• We used old apple computers and some newer PC’s
• Restricted use to mainly artistic purposes
High school technology
• We were required to take typing classes but other than that, computer classes were not even offered at this public school
College technology
• I have a major in integrated media with a minor in business
• I have taken many web based design classes but not ANY educational teaching classes
• Mac computers are the only way to go when it comes to design
