Educational+Technology

Technology is becoming a huge part of the world all around us. Which means the students we will be teaching in the future are going to be more inclined to use technology in their everyday lives. Children today learn differently than they did in the past. This means as teachers, we have to be prepared for the changing students that are coming into our classrooms. It is important for us to change our teaching styles to make education easier and more engaging for them. Integrating technology in the classroom is a great way to do this. By using technology, we can relate to what the students like to do outside of the classroom and allow them to become more interested in whats going on inside of the classroom.
 * Educational Technology **

I believe that technology should be integrated into the classroom enough to allow students to be engaged in the learned, and make things more interesting for them. Things such as an elmo projector, a smartboard, computers, and even a calculator are all types of technologies that can be useful in the classroom. using these things makes learning more adaptable to the way students learn. My job, as a teacher is to change the way I teach in order to ensure each student in the classroom is receiving the best education possible. However, technology should not take over the entire classroom. It is important for children to learn the basic skills of reading and writing without the help of technology. Technology can be a great asset to the classroom as long as it is used sparingly and appropriately.
