The video featuring Vicki Davis and how technology can play a key role in education is very similar to the first two videos. Going online in the classroom can broaden a student's perspective on any subject. Ms. Davis had her students, from a south Georgia town, connected to the world while in class. She let her students blog which was a good way for them to express their ideas and opinions and got them more involved with class.
The good thing about using internet in class is it makes it much easier for the students to get hands on experience. It's not the traditional teacher lecturing and students listening technique. Students are very much familiar with the internet today and it can be a comforting experience to use internet as a learning tool.
