Class Expectations

Technology seems to be obsolete the moment it becomes available to the public.  I know there are many resources that could help me guide a classroom.  Ultimately, I would prefer to refrain from using any technology in my classroom unless every student has equal access to that technology (meaning a computer for every student).  I would like my class to be interactive with me and one another and not focusing on a screen or overhead.  Accessing information from home, on the other hand, is a different story.  I would love to have interactive labs and ongoing open forums with my students to help answer questions and to initiate topic specific conversations.  I would also like to provide access for parents to view their child's progress in my class, to see what we will be doing or what we have done on certain days and to ask questions if necessary.
