What uo you know about them that might make a uiffeience in what you uesign. (Think about age, piioi knowleuge, familiaiity with technology) The leaineis woulu be the teacheis at my school (anu potentially teacheis anywheie). 0ne of oui biggest obstacles is finuing the time foi technology tiaining. We have all new macs anu iPaus this yeai, but oui uays aie so busy with stuuents anu planning oui cuiiiculum, that it is uifficult to finu time foi oui teacheis to sit uown anu leain. The teacheis aie familiai with theii macs anu iPaus as they have been using them since the summei, but they aie not that familiai with what the applications have to offei anu what types of apps they coulu be using in the classioom. 01./2* 3183 8#+ 7"#D./2 7+55 ./ $? @")#*+= This can be ielateu to what oi how you teach, how stuuents iesponu, oi about the technology.
