Technology-based resources within the social studies

        Using technology-based resources within the social studies classroom supports real-world applications and helps to inspire teachers in their lesson planning and instructional practices. Continually exploring technology resources which can be utilized within the classroom demonstrates a teaching best practice.   Allocate at least 3 hours in the field to support this field experience.   Observe a minimum of one social studies lesson taught by a certified K-8 teacher. During the observation, take particular note of how technology was used and its effectiveness. If technology was not used where in the lesson was there an opportunity for technology to be used?
