This document discusses ways to integrate technology into the classroom by expanding one's toolkit of technological tools and resources. It begins with a sample schedule of a teacher's day that does not incorporate much technology use, then discusses the difference between simply using technology versus truly integrating it to enhance learning. It presents the NETS standards for student technology use and provides examples of specific technological tools that can be used for creativity, communication, research, critical thinking, digital citizenship, and developing technology skills. These include tools for collaboration, online poster creation, virtual science fairs, online notice boards, graphic organizing, document sharing, audio recording, and more.
