Thoughts on using technology in my future classroom

I think that the students were more concerned with getting their ideas down and having complete thoughts rather than their grammar skills.  Which I find nothing wrong with when beginning any type of writing assignment.  I could tell that the student who I guided in the writing activity really cared about how the story and plot was going to be laid out and that the story was complete and exciting.  I feel that edmodo really helped get their ideas down and could critique thier own stories after receiving feedback from a fresh pair of eyes who was able to give them ideas and pathways to take their story.  I think that their communications skills were very well thought out, I was able to follow the story quite easily and know where the writer was going.  With some polishing and final adjustments the stories will be very well written and most importantly thought out.  I would use edmodo in my classroom, for collaboration on art critiques.  It seems like it would be a great tool to see how other teachers approach different techniques and theories and what other students come up with in their classrooms.  I think that this tool is a great way to broaden the understanding of the subject area and collaboration in the real world.
