15 Page Paper V.S. Digital Story

Yes I do believe a digital story can replace a 15 page research paper. I believe this because you put more effort in to creating something unique with a digital story. When writting a paper you find your information and reword it in your own words for 15 pages. Atleast with a digital story students wont get bored with all the animation that goes into it.

Texting, and Iming whats next?

No, my attitude towards the effects of digital media on language are that it doesn't effect our knowledge on how to say or spell words.

English and Texting may be spelled different, but it is the same thing....

No, it hasn't changed becuase like I said kids, teenagers, and young adults know how they have to talk in the classroom, with friends, or on a job. Their is a lot of short hand writing going on now more than ever, but when it comes down to it we all know how to talk and spell correctly.

Textbooks V.S. iPads

When first switching from textbooks to iPads you will be in debt at first, but as for yearly use you will be saveing more money then what you would spend on textbooks. Textbooks last about on average 5 years and after that it's time to purchase the same book once again. This doesn't even include new editions being printed every couple years. Yes, teaching can improve without a textbook infront of them, because if that is the case they would do more hands on activity then just sliding their finger along the words.



This is just one prime example of using textbooks, they dont even know the truth and we are being taught what is in them. If we were given iPads then we could ready it, but also look it up to find out what others say about the same thing. Instead, we see one thing and that is it, that is the correct answer no matter what is proven different.

Literacy = ???????

In my opinion, literate means to know and understand and comprehend what you read, write, hear, and say without any second guessing. Standerdized spelling and grammar is essential for productivity in a way, because if you see/hear someone say "wrud = what are you doing or omg = oh my God" it doesn't mean they are less knowledgable of the english language. This is only saying they are tring to speak or talk in less words.

Blogging (Positive/Negative)

Their is many benefits of blogging and one major benefit is working on communication skills to one another through a computer. I think the only big concern about blogging at a young age is that they might start using text language instead of proper english language. Another big plus about blogging at a young age is that we will be able to improve their computer knowledge starting young.
