It seems as though I missed an interesting Skype with Aviva Dunsiger. From what I have read in Aviva Dunsiger's Blog and on this Google Doc, she seems to optimize student learning with implementing technology in ways that meet students' needs. Using Twitter, Skype, and blogging, Aviva demonstrates using the Net Standards for both teachers and students seamlessly. Aviva also encourages the use of I pads and I pods, the Nintendo DS, as well as other Apps, within the classroom to enhance and differentiate lessons with ease. My favorite quote from her is, "I see results, so I use the tools!" In her blog, she demonstrates that even very young students can use technology to demonstrate understanding of difficult concepts and increase literacy skills.
I also found Aviva's Blog from 2008 to 2011 an interesting read that you may want to check out.
Let me know what you think of her ideas and implementing technology to meet the needs of students in a 21st century learning environment. I would also like to know about the Skype session with her. Anything of interest that I missed???

Thanks for the blog post! Glad to hear that you liked the blog and the quote. I feel very strongly about this. If I didn't see results, I wouldn't use the tools.
