Happy New Year…

Happy 2008! Monday January 7th marks the end of my holiday “break”. Break is in quotations because for me, it was not a break at all. I wasn’t teaching or blogging, instead I was putting together our yearbook. The admin. decided to go digital this year. When anything goes digital, it is a good indication of more work headed my way. I love my job! I realized as I worked over the break that if it hadn’t been the yearbook it would have been something else. You see, I can easily become technology obsessed. I love finding and learning about new technologies, especially those that are education related. I hope that my obsession brings you some useful ideas for integrating technology into your classroom this year. Please share your technology finds, successes, and frustrations.  I, like you, am a teacher and I know that introducing technology into the classroom can bring them all.  I so enjoy hearing from all of you! This year you can count on iLearn Technology to bring you the latest ideas for integrating educational technology in your classroom.  Thank you for joining me on this journey. May 2008 be a year of blessings for you!

What it is: Binary Game is a fun Tetris like game where students can learn about and practice binary numbers.  Students are given a target number that they must match by adjusting the 1′s and 0′s.  My fellow computer teacher tried to teach me about binary numbers last year with a binary clock he has (yes we are geeks!) but I didn’t fully understand until playing this game.  Students will have the concept down in no time!

How to integrate Binary Game into the classroom: This is a great little game to fill in those extra minutes in the computer/tech classroom.  The Binary game helps students understand the concept of Binary Numbers and could be a great introduction to a more in-depth study of computing.
