Technology plays a primary role in my teaching, but I rarely turn on the computer that makes the classroom “smart.” Occasionally, I project the class tweet stream. I am an advocate of Twitter for higher ed.

"The classroom is not where my students listen (or consume what I deliver). Rather, in the classroom I become a sherpa. I guide them on the journey of their choosing. My job is to know where the treasures are, that all paths lead to jewels of critical thinking. This happens through nuanced conversation, through discussion, through debate and interaction."
An interesting view on using tech in the classroom. Obviously, this may apply to some contexts, but not necessarily all. For instance, in language lessons, using tech (e.g. apps) for story telling is enriching as students tend to work in small groups/pairs, which they can't always do outside of the classroom.
