Artifact #1....
One article that I found very intriguing and helped guide the start of my research was the article titled Back to School: What's in Your Student's Backpack? Even from the title, I knew this article was exactly what I needed to begin my research process. It started off giving a basic synopsis of how technology is altering education and the way students' develop literary skills in this generation. Laptops and iPads now take the place of hardcover textbooks and novels. I learned many intesting facts such as the 450,000 iPads were sold in April of 2010. These iPads are now a students source of information instead of a textbook. Below is a link to this article as I thought all of my blog readers would enjoy this. It will give you a good feel of the direction my research will be headed in. Hopefully you enjoy this article as much as I did!
