My Beliefs about Technology and Learning

 Technology has really evoloved over time in the classrooms. From overheads to powerpoint to now smart boards. In my opinion, technology has vastly improved and is only going to get better. With the advancement in technology, teachers need to keeping up with this. It is very important for any teacher to be up to date and not too apprehensive about learning and teaching us students what this new technology has to offer. Life without technology in a classroom is dull and boring. Just reading from a textbook isn't going to suffice anymore. The world has moved onto bigger and better things like the smartboard. In my opinion, every classroom should have one of these because they are only going to make students learning experiences better and it can possibly help them want to learn more. It will be up to the teacher to be up to date with the technologies since students are move tech savy and know everything there is to know. If we as teachers can incorprate technology in an educational way, I believe it will help make educating generations to come much easier and a make learning more fun for everyone.

  3. teachers should definitely be required to take technology courses to keep up-to-date with the up and coming technology. However, they should never forgot the basics of learning and that they should always incorporate it with technology.
