Final Thoughts"Technology should be embedded into student learning as a natural fit-the right tool for the right job. There are excellent tools for students and teachers to use to integrate into lessons that align with the new Common Core State Standards (CCSS)." (Cohen, 2012)

"All teachers who expect writing products need to re-examine totally what is possible using the new technologies frfom texting to tweeting, to social networking, and on into the mainstream of Web 2.0. Then, it is not just a matter of making the tools available. It is the coaching of this digital generation how to take advantage of the new power within the world of learning." (Loertscher, 2009)

Take Your Time

Don't feel as though you have to

use all or even half of these tools next
