Abstract

This chapter is a teacher’s toolkit of engaging ideas that use digital technologies in classrooms encouraging students to read, write, and communicate. The innovative approaches, employed by working teachers, include social networking, recording applications, digital photography, word clouds, glogs, slide presentations, and other multimedia tools. This chapter also challenges teacher educators to nurture dispositions of action research and reflection in new teachers so that as tools continue to emerge, teachers will retain a commitment to learning and to consuming with a critical and adventurous spirit.
