State of Flow

The article that we read for class was titled MI & Technology: A Winning Combination! Our group discussed state of flow. State of flow is achieved when you are so "into" what you are doing that you are "in the zone". You may tune out everything around you because you are trying to get that next step mastered. Technology is a great way to reach all the multiple intelligences while "in the zone." Tamara taught herself to use Excel at work and was at work very late one night and didn't realize the time. Margo found her zone in Photoshop during class. Leslie's zone was Facebook on her home computer. I talked about my students who taught other students while using computers to virtully disect frogs. It's interesting to look around the computer lab and see ohter people in the zone.
