Technology is important, because it’s a way to connect to your students for educational purposes. Technology is a tool for learning. Anything used for learning is good for students.
Technology used in the classrooms that I’ve seen are projectors, smart boards, and power points. I’ve learned that my learning style is auditory and visual. All this to say, that I enjoy power points that I can see what the teacher is talking about.
I’m observing teaching at an elementary school, and the teacher uses the smart board. Technology is great when it works, yet useless if it doesn’t work. Teachers always need to have a plan B or even plan C. Teachers need to be flexible and ready for anything with a group of students.
Technology is great, because it connects to your students. It gives the students a chance to explore and be excited to learn. Learning should be fun!
