History can be a tough subject to incorporate technology into. Teachers don't want to just show videos, and students do not always want to watch boring videos on history that happened long ago. So how can we as future educators of history use technology to make it fun and exciting for our students? The National History Education Clearinghouse has many articles on different ways you can use whiteboards to get your students engaged. Real America History is run through Leigh University, and they have a list of movies that teachers can use to incorporate their learning.
Blogs can also be a great tool for students to use. It can help them connect the past to the present, and can make for a really interesting article! Whether it's blogging or watching exciting videos that can grasp your students attention, technology can be very useful in teaching history at any level!
