We all know how digital classrooms are becoming more familiar in schools and as part of teaching. As we use Digital learning in classrooms, it comes with challenges and demands for students to overcome helping them create solutions and providing them with more engaging content. This article is simple and great in that it outlines the important aspects as why teachers should continue to use digital learning in classrooms. It also talks about how it lets teachers reflect on their teaching because of it. Interesting read, recommend.

An interesting idea and one that could save time in the long run and provide us with contacts around the world for inspiration and support in our subject areas. |

It is always good to be informed of any new updates that are taking place in the platforms we use on a daily basis.

This article was an exciting find because I had recently read about virtual field trips and now I got to see what they are like! This is honestly the coolest thing, and the imagery is so clear I almost feel like I'm there. I can see this being an incredible tool in the classroom to expose students what exists beyond their school walls without having to go through the hastle of planning a trip and causing students to miss other classes. The experts in the video also seemed to enjoy doing the virtual trips, so it seems like a win, win. I think that any content area teacher could use this to enhance their lessons, and I think that students would really enjoy it as well. So neat!

As you can see, this method of using Google + provides students with a chance that is as close as possible to a real school excursion. This entire Connected Classrooms experience can be viewed live or played back to classes around the globe.
Whilst watching these recordings and live broadcasts, students could be instructed to collect data/information and later represent this data through electronic means - fulfilling one of the Year 3 and 4 Technology Content Descriptors.
