Pros and Cons of Technology in K-3 Classrooms

For our group inquiry project, we decided to investigate the pros and cons of technology use, and particularly screen use in K-3 classrooms. We were aware of some of the benefits and concerns regarding screen use in young children and came to the conclusion that limited screen use is the best way forward. Listen to our podcast below to find out more about how screens effect young children. The video is of a local naturescape to contrast with the topic of high-tech digital devices.

If the above version is too fast (it is sped up to hit the time constraints of this assignment and also gives a futuristic vibe) here is the slowed down version:

For this project, I filmed the naturescape, created a scaffold for our research, and wrote and recorded the introduction, the benefits of screens, and the conclusion.
