Describe 5 different types of Software
-Word processing/publishing: Helps organize thoughts. ex. Goggle Docs -Calculators/spreadsheets- these can be used in math classes to help organize data and solve problems or in other classes to give students a way to organize information. -Text, audio, or video based communications- can be used to create content to present to the class. -Graphics- can be used to teach a concept such as with comic strips. -Presentations- allows for information to be given/ demonstrated to a group of people -Games and Simulations- these allow students to practice skills and concepts in fun ways. Learning as well as problem solving is in play with this category of software.
The 4 Factors for Fair Use for Teachers
1.Purpose and Character - a work can be considered Fair Use if its being used for educational purposes, commentary, research, or as transformative 2. Nature of work -certain factors determine fair use such as - wiether its published -Factual works more likely fair use. -Nonfiction is more likely going to be fair use. Gov. public record -Consumables such as work books not fair use. 3. Amount of work used -The smaller the amount of original work is used. it most likely qualify as fair use. if the portion is smaller than whole more likely fair use. 4.The effect on the market -if the work appeals to a different audience than more likely fair use.

5. Interactive tools Students use technology in and out of class to increase learning 6. Interacting with others Students connect with other students or teachers online to increase learning
Technology Lab
A set-up of 20-30 computer or mobile devices to teach lessons simultaneously which can help the teacher be more effective. Allows for all computers to be on one network and sharing the same software. This is different from the multiple-device classroom as the class moves to a technology lab from their classroom, while in the multiple-device classroom setup everything is in one room
Technology Carts
A way for schools to provide laptops for the class by putting them on carts, this is a way a school can go without permanent installation of the devices. Provides a way for teachers to use computer devices when needed. Allows mobility of the carts and makes traveling with computers easier. Unlike going to computer lab which, may not be available for the time needed.
Multi Device Classroom
Classrooms have many computers or devices in the room available to students. Allows for group work in the classroom or multiple kids on one device simultaneously. This setup is becoming one of the more popular ways for classrooms to be set up in terms of technology
Computer Assisted Instruction
Computer-Assisted Instruction (CAI) helps students learn specific knowledge and skills. Technology is used to reinforce classroom instruction, for example: drill and practice, tutorials, extended and/or more complicated problems, review problems, practice problems, and many more.
Computer-Managed Instruction
Computer-Managed Instruction (CMI) is the term for a broad category of applications designed to assist in the management of the instruction process. Examples include: myCourses, Poll Everywhere, and Google Classroom. These programs help you run your classroom but do not actually do any of the teaching.
constructivism as a Paradigm for Teaching and Learning
Constructivism is basically a theory based on observation and scientific study about how people learn. It says that people construct their own understanding and knowledge of the world, through experiencing things and reflecting on those experiences.
Discuss the advantages and limitations of using technology in learning
Disadvantages: Not all students will have access to technology outside of school Cheating and plagiarism are more common Misuse of technology Advantages: There are countless resources for enhancing education and making learning more fun and effective Students can learn life skills through technology Prepares students for the future

Intergrating technology with learning
The ultimate value of technology in education depends on how fully and seamlessly it is integrated into the curriculum. Technological devices in the classroom are not additional "things" that you must include, but rather are integral to the support and extension of learning for all you students (ISTE, 2009). In technology-rich classroom, you and your students engage in problem solving, cultivating creativity, collaborate globally, and discover the value of lifelong learning
Single Device Classrooms
There is one computer per classroom in this setup. The teacher has several options for use in this format. A large group can be given the computer to use, the class can be split into small groups and take turns using the computer, and the computer can be used as a learning center for students who need or want individual help or practice.While the teacher is somewhat limited because only one device is available, there is also greater flexibility and variation in lessons and activities.
The ISTE Standards
describe the skills and knowledge they need to learn effectively and live productively in an increasingly global and digital society.
