Biggest issue for kids' using technology

Technology has been introduced into kids' life and become an important part of their life. However, when dealing with technology, kids might meet a lot problems. For instance, internet became one of the biggest issue for them and also caused a lot of problems. Children are usually tempted by the other information on the internet during their studying time, which causes ineffeciency. Besides, when doing their homework and asked to search the relevant info online, children can be violated by all kinds of other websites which are filled with sexual insulting information. And by this, kids are becoming victims that are mislead to wrong direction. This can also cause the psychological problems for children too.
The other technology, online education, benefits the students in a great many ways, while causes a lot of problems at the same time. It says that it is very easy for students lose enthusiasm during the whole process because of lacking the interpersonal cummunication.

In the snow days, it is very hard for students and teachers go to classroom. However, using technology can solve the problem. By using wiki, students can join the class discussion. And by using blogger, students can turn in their homework. Besides, learn.ou.edu is an another way to engage students learning in snow days.

webquest

I think that webquest is a web 2.0 tool. Since in the website, people can share the link and get contact with each other. Users can do purchase from the website as well join in a community. So it is quite a intergrated website.
