			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span class="entry-content">What&#8217;s on your Top 5 wish list for new technologies you want to bring into your school/district? Even if your wish isn&#8217;t really a &#8220;technology,&#8221; please leave your list in the comments. I&#8217;ll post results soon.</span></p>
<p><strong>My Top 5 (in no particular order):</strong></p>
<p>1. Skype</p>
<p>2. An unfiltered internet connection for all&#8211; or a less restrictive filtering policy.</p>
<p>3. The opportunity to help others see that technology is a <strong>tool</strong>, not an extra to teach&#8211; and that using this <strong>tool </strong>could help students demonstrate proficiencies <em>differently</em>. Additionally, students might be able to think more critically, creatively, and digitally if given the chance to learn in &#8220;their own world.&#8221;</p>
<p>4. Wikis, Nings, more teacher blogs, and other social-networking-collaboration options. I use them constantly for my own work, but I don&#8217;t think we have enough people taking advantage of these fabulous tools! (for some, it&#8217;s a policy thing)</p>
<p>5. The chance for our students to participate in something like <a title="Cool Cat Teacher Blog" href="http://coolcatteacher.blogspot.com" target="_blank">Vicki Davis</a> and <a title="123elearning Blog" href="http://123elearning.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Julie Lindsey</a>&#8216;s <a title="FlatClassroomProject" href="http://flatclassroomproject.wikispaces.com/" target="_blank">Flat Classroom Project</a>!</p>
