Thoughts on Technology in Education

Technology is very important to education! Students are coming in with such a vast amount of technological information and it's important for teachers to encourage their students to increase their technological knowledge. I also think that technology can help educate students. For the visual learner, they can look at the Smartboard, Elmo projector, or even the computer. The kinesthetic learner can learn by actually doing the things on the computer and Smartboard. The auditory listener can listen to music, video, podcasts, and the computer. I don't see how technology could not benefit a student.

My views of technology haven't changed this semester, but it was nice to learn about some of the technology out there that is beneficial. Some of my favorite new technology findings have been the blogger, podcasts, and the Smartboard. I hope to use them in my classroom in the future.
