In my classroom this week since there are only two computers, they are mostly used for students, especially ELL students to practice learning their sounds and hearing the language. This week they didn't really listen to the CD player, but they did watch a movie about the presidents of the United States on the TV. The students also see the overhead and use the listening center everyday.
I did not use any technology in the classroom yet, because the school does not have a lot of access to a lot of technology. They have one lab in which the students while we have been in the schools have not used. I also found out that a lot of times the reason why I have never seen the use technology is because they do it during their rotation time where they go to the library, have gym and have time in the computer lab. In a lesson you could use technology by showing them different pictures or movie clips of the different topics you are talking about so the students, especially the ELL's will understand more of what the vocabulary means by providing them with a visual picture in their minds.
