I chose to do my Wikipedia post on Educational Technology. I chose this topic because last semester I went to Patton Elementary School in Perth Amboy, New Jersey, where they had something I'd never seen before. Every classroom teacher had a wireless microphone hooked up and there was surround sound in the class. While there, I asked one of the teachers why they had that, assuming it was just in the one class I went to for a child who may have been hearing impaired. Turns out that there have been studies that proved that children learn best at high frequencies, thus the reason for the microphones in the classroom.
While looking at the Wikipedia post, there seemed to already be a lot of information, so I thought to myself how would this post help in practicality. So, I added a subtitle called Technology in the Classroom. I first posted the information on February 26, and to this date, the information has not been taken down. I went back a few days later, and posted more information on March 1st and 2nd and that information too has not been taken down yet. My contributions thus far to the wikipedia site has been successful. Let's keep tracking it to see what happens, if anything!
Safe place, no judgement.
