Lessons Learned

These articles, videos and survey made me more aware of the different technology there is today and how it will keep progressing with more and more gadgets. Technology is continually changing and being updated to quicker, more effective tools. I learned that while I am a teacher I need to be educated on new technology often. There are many neat tools that teachers can use in their classroom if they are educated on how the tools work. I want to be one of those teachers that knows how the technology works and is able to incorporate it into their classroom and make the lessons more enjoyable.
Another lesson I learned about technology is that many individuals believe that technology will get to the point that there won't need to be lunch ladies or as much contact with the students. I really hope that it doesn't get to that point one day. I believe that students need that interaction with their teachers that feeling that teachers care. Technology can really benefit teachers but it can also affect the way that teachers teach. I hope that it never gets to that point where teachers use technology for everything.
