So I just found this article, Integrating Technology into the Language Arts Classroom, and I really like it for exactly what it is: a list of ways to move the literature-based ELA course to the 21st century. It is a pretty basic list, but I think that something like this will be an excellent reminder for when I am teaching. I know I'll probably be pretty overwhelmed, so it will be helpful to have something like this to remind me of the essential ways that technology can be used in an ELA classroom.
The article also led me to this website, WebQuest.Org, a website devoted to explaining how to find, create, and share a WebQuest. According to the site's authors a WebQuest is "an inquiry-oriented lesson format in which most or all the information that learners work with comes from the web." I might incorporate this format in the second lesson I teach at my site this semester, so I will definitely be referring back to this website!
Have a good Tuesday night, everyone! Go Royals!
