  • The following five technological tools are must haves for the classroom of today. Each tool provides teachers with a method in which they can actively engage their students in the learning process.
  • The Internet -

  • ...11 more annotations...
  • LCD Projector
  • allows a teacher the opportunity to share activities, videos, Power Point presentations, etc. from their computer with the whole class.
  • Document Camera
  • You simply put the document you want to show your students under the camera, and it is shot up on the screen through your LCD projector. Once it is up on the screen you can use the camera to take a screen shot of the document and save it directly to your computer for later or just use the live version. A document camera also allows you to place diagrams, charts, textbooks , etc. on a large screen so that all your students can see the images, passages, etc. at one time.
  • Smart Board
  • Teachers can create engaging, active lessons using the many tools
  • They can transpose diagrams, charts, and templates, have students come up and actively participate in the lesson, and then print anything such as notes that were completed on a particular day and given to students as a handout
  • students are enthusiastic
  • Digital Camera
  • engage students in the learning process.
  • Teachers who use this technology find that students will work hard to learn because they enjoy the interaction with the camera and the fact that it is a different style of teaching and learning.

  • Despite the challenges, incorporating technology into education still has proven benefits, especially when it comes to personalized learning. From math games that adjust the level of difficulty as players progress to electronic books that talk and respond to the tap of a finger, products that personalize the learning experience for students often benefit their understanding. An interactive game is more engaging than a book, so technology often promotes more practice and review in areas requiring memorization, such as spelling, math and geography. This frees up time in the classroom so educators can focus on skills like problem solving, character development and critical thinking.
  • Technology also makes it easier to spend more overall time on learning. “After school and weekend time can become effective learning time with the right technology,” says David Vinca, founder and executive director of eSpark Learning, an education company that focuses on bringing iPads and iPods into the classroom. Much like how smart phones extend the workday by allowing professionals to send emails anytime, educational technology extends the school day for kids who will happily play multiplication games or review grammar on computer programs.

    Very interesting article. Is technology helpful or harmful in the classroom. This website provides good information regarding why it is good to have it in the classroom.

    Gives great examples of why technology is good in the classroom. It gives kids to use technology outside of the classroom as well.

    Kids gravitate towards technology-if your child heads straight for the video games or Facebook after school, you know what we're talking about. With a world of information at their fingertips nowadays, it seems like kids should be finding it easier than ever to succeed in school.

  • We were taught very differently because we only had access to the "Encyclopedia Britannica", text books, and card catalogs. The students of today have access to a colossal amount of information. We must take this into consideration if we are going to prepare them for the modern workplace and a future so technologically advanced that it is inconceivable at this momen
  • students need to be more in control of their own learning. In order for this to occur, educators must move aside and give up some power. This is the only way we can begin to make true educational progress, and the Internet must be our guiding force
  • As we progress in this technologically charged world, we face a very important question. What is to become of the role of teachers? Will they become obsolete?
  • The hard truth is that the tech-savvy students of today do not want to be lectured to about facts they can instantly find with the click of a button on their smart phones. Siri can often give a more comprehensive answer than many of us on any given topic. Therefore, the honest truth is that HOW we teach must change. Making students memorize rote facts and regurgitate them is no longer sensible, and educators now have the opportunity to have students think much more critically, solve problems, and use their creativity in ways they never have been pushed to do in the past.
