Harry, You just made a great point; cross platform reliability. Java and Flash can be such a pain for the student and for the instructor! Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Peter, I Love your post! I too like to use technology that they can use in the workplace. I think we do overlook the technology skill transference that can happen if we let students think about it! I have quit telling students what technology to use, I want them to figure out how to get a job done and they determine the best way to do it. (This does go against my need to control) :) Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

David, You make a great point about user friendliness. I have seen this soo overlooked, particularly within a LMS. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Margarette, What a great post. I think you have to "experiment" with the technology but that can be hard as that takes time and who has that! :) Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Gloria, That is a perfect way to bring authentic assessment into the discussion. Students will bring their own experiences to the table there! Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Susan, LOVE THIS! How creative. Do the students find this way of learning interesting. . . ? Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Lindsey, It also engages the students and helps them learn problem solving skills. Using this improves students critical thinking in all courses. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Paul, I am so glad you discussed digital portfolios! I think it is an excellent way for students to determine what is their good work. I love your post. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Kenya, Maybe try case studies where students have to observe certain behavior. You may want to use Youtube clips or just text case studies. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Jennifer, I agree for business subjects, you must use the real world. I teaching business writing, they have to write and it has to be in a business scenario. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson
