I think that teachers should go as far as necessary to get technology that relates with the topic they are teaching. They could get it from the internet, library, or even a local book store.
I think that online chats would help those students who use it correctly. If questions over homework or information are being asked, then yes i think it should be in a classroom but if students get off topic and talk about their game for that week or what they are doing the next weekend, then i think chat should be taken out of instruction.
I would prefer to have face-to-face communication and instruction. I have taken a class before where the teacher is on a different campus and so we just basically watched them on a video. There was often alot of technical difficulties.
Podcasts do enhance learning because they are audio or video file that is updated automatically when updates are avaliable.
I do think a videogame could help you with studying because it allows positive repetition to take place and explore information in more detail, as long as it is educational. I do agree with the article over video games and yes i will let my children play video games everyday if they want as long as they get their school work done first and get some fresh air outside with their friends too.

I agrre with you about kids needing to get other thing that are more important done first, and that they need the fresh air. I will most likely treat my kids that way. I also agree that games can be helpful if they are used in the right mannor. If they are not used correctly than what is the point?
