Chris- I love your top 10 list! There are days when it is easier to follow others and not integrate tech tools into my curriculum. Creating a list of reasons would help to keep my eyes on the prize when I'm feeling a bit lazy. I'm not sure if I want to create a list of reasons or a list of ways. Whichever I choose I'm going to post it right by my workspace at school! Thanks Yoder
