The tutorial I watched, Educational Technology for Student Success touched on a lot of great information. I learned about all the technology tools teachers can use in the classroom. I had no idea how many there really is. The speaker even explained to me step by steps on how to use the technology with students and parents. Lynda.com is an amazing! The website displays endless amounts of tech video tutorials. I absolutely plan to use this website again. My favorite part was when he talked about using free google tools. As well as when he discussed how important the rules on copyright are, and how a teacher should teach the students how to safely use information that isn't their own.
