Chapter six talks about how the world wide web and how computers help students learn about different cultures and even communicate with other students around the world. chapter six also metions the best strategy for curriculum integration is to put technology in the hands of trained teachers; i agree with this completley. the only way technology can work to its fullest is if you know how to use it.
I learned to do new things with powerpoint. i now know how to make objects move around and how to apply different animations. i also learned that you can time your powerpoint presentation and you can set the slides to automatically change according to your time.
I really liked chapter six, for my introduction to education class i had to read a book by Todd Openhiemer. it is called "saving education from the false promis of technology. i did not like the book becuase i fully support technology in the classroom, i do not think it is doing any harm. it was nice to read something positive about technology after reading that book.
