The activities I engaged in were different from when I was in school. When I was in school we did not use technology, except for research and that was very seldom. They were the same as far as polls and research but it was all done in class with books and magazines. We were never given a rubric to use to follow through. My learning style is addressed in this activity, I am a better learner by hands on and group work. The students actually got to participate and help make the voki and be part of this activity. I am not suprised that this class did not use a textbook. Technology has come a long way, and textbooks are not always up to date and may have some false information since it takes a few years to publish. I would be interested in becoming a teacher that uses technology like this, that way students won't get bored easy and the shy person can get involved and enjoy the class just like the normal outgoing student. One barrier can be a family that does not use technology or are not able to afford these ammentites for their children. Some children will shy away from these items, just try to enforce its ok for them to use this. Another concern could be the students that are not that good at technology may not want to do this.
