1) I think Conrad does a great job in catching up with the technology. i remember when we only had the big desktops and over the years we got the laptops and the smart boards. It took the teachers a little longer to get used to these things than the students. Just recently we got the Distance Learning Lab. This is really good for conrad. For a while we didnt have much and not we are doing more than a lot of other schools.
2) i believe that some of the obstacles in technology is the glitches that come along with them and the cost of these things. for example, it costs thousands of dollars for the schools to build the distance learning lab. thats one reason that a majority of the schools do not have these things. the school laptops even cost alot because they have to get so many and then for the reapirs when they get messed up .
3)after reading the article it appears to me that technology intergration will keep developing into bigger and better things so that one day it will make teachers job easier on them, it will also give teachers a different way to teac, maybe make it more fun and intresting for the students.

1) Glogs could replace other types of classroom projects because there is so much more you can do with a glogster to show your creativity. Even if you cant draw , you can put pictures on your glog to make it look nice and show what you are talking about.
2) you can ask your teacher about trying glogs. tell them that its less paper work that they will have to do it could save them time.
