Sometimes I find the low tech/no tech ideas hold a lot of validity. Even though I drive to work in the mornings, on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I get to class by walking from my office to campus. It's cheaper than paying for parking each time and I get a bit of exercise in.
Something I would like to do with my students, when I have a class of my own, is low tech. A fellow archaeology student once told me that what got him interested in archaeology was a history teacher who took has class on a field trip to his backyard. The students excavated his backyard. He had previously dug up his yard and planted materials. The students learned how to perform an archaeological dig. History can be hands on, not just something out of a book.
