The goal of this lesson is to develop stronger reading fluency and comprehension, and increase language acquisition skills:

Using an iPod and a voice recorder, students record themselves reading stories. The content is then cleaned up using GarageBand and redistributed to the students who use it to sound out words, hear how language is used fluidly, and gain a better understanding of the story.

At Empire High School in Vail, Ariz., students use computers provided by the school to get their lessons, do their homework and hear podcasts of their teachers’ science lectures.

Down the road, at Cienega High School, students who own laptops can register for “digital sections” of several English, history and science classes. And throughout the district, a Beyond Textbooks initiative encourages teachers to create — and share — lessons that incorporate their own PowerPoint presentations, along with videos and research materials they find by sifting through reliable Internet sites.
