This article provides practical ideas for integrating technologies into the classroom in ways that honor students’ out-of-school technology funds of knowledge. The challenges and unintended consequences of integrating technology into the classroom and the role that video gaming can play in helping students find agency and the ability to think critically about print-based narratives are also included.
