justification for the cost (if any), the appropriate audience for the resource, the appropriate context for the resource, and a quote from a research-based article (include correct APA citation)

about the necessity of the integration of technology into the classroom (you may NOT use the article provided by your instructor for Exercise 2.1). Upload your PowerPoint to a free sharing

service such as www.slideshare.com, http://www.authorstream.com, or [].

in which the slide sharing application resides. Save this screenshot as lastname_group_pres in Word, PDF, or .RTF format. Also include a link to your personal web space in the assignment dropbox comments
