This past assignment has really opened my eyes. First, to the fact that technology needs to find a bigger place in our classrooms. Expanding and using new technologies as a teacher widens the scope of ability for the teacher. Technology provides you with so many more options and ways of teaching than in the past. Not only do you have technological resources but also advice and help in the form of websites where advice and tips are offered to teachers of all content areas.
It has become more apparant that technology rules the world in which we live. It's not leaving. As a teacher, I want to embrace this; learn all I can about technologies and use them to help my students. Perhaps even the best ways to learn about new technologies is from your students themeselves! How beneficial would it be to the classroom feel and teacher student relationship if students new their teacher wanted them to approach them and share the new app they downloaded and how it helps them! Lets learn from each other! This will be one of my goals. If we could help each other learn new technolgies, as a teacher, you will be so much more able to help students and the students will be more prepared for college and the work force.
