Answer:
One traditional audio technology is a cassette tape. I could use in a classroom by having my students listen to a book on tape. One emerging audio technology is a CD. I could use this to send home digital items that students can use to study material covered in class. One traditional visual technology is printed material. I could use books, handouts, and worksheets to give to students to take home and study. One emerging visual technology is a digital projector.

Well I'm Zoe Winkelman and I'm a freshman at BGSU. I'm majoring in Middle Childhood Education with concentrations in math and science. I'm apart of the ACTION program, which is the BEST program ever and you wish you were in it! Cohort 3 = dabomb.com. Outside of school, I love to dance. I've been dancing for...well...forever. I am currently a company member of Ballet Theatre of Toledo and have been in the company for four years. In addition to dance, I am obsessed with music and fashion. Also, I love quotes so here's one for you to ponder:
"If you can make a girl laugh, you can make her do anything." ~Marilyn Monroe
