Outside edublog

In this blog the 3rd grade teacher has setup learning stations in the classroom while integrating technology. There were four stations and two had technology. One station was using the computers in the room to hand and had a drop box to put assignments in. I think this is very handy because as a teacher you can monitor the work students are completeing during their time on the computer. The other station was enhanced with the use of a SmartBoard. The students were playing Jeopardy with review questions. The student that would finish with the most money would get a reward. I am assuming it was something that was predetermined. My question for Ed Tech Lady would be during the Jeopardy is there somebody there to watch them play fairly, like a TA? Maybe this could be answered/or solved by making sure that the groups are assigned that way you don't get the super quiet child with the child that will take everything over. I think the stations that the teacher put in the classroom are good community builders.
