Chapter 6:
If I had to teach in a classroom, I would prefer to teach in
a classroom with more technology. I would rather teach in a classroom with
technology because as a teacher, you have so much more to offer students. If
you were teaching in a classroom with less digital technology, students would
not be open to as many opportunities while learning. An example of how digital
technology can be used in a classroom is that students can study for a quiz
using a flashcard application on an I-Pad. It is easier and a lot more efficient than paper flashcards.
Also lap taps are very useful in the classroom. Children can work on projects
and type papers when using laptops. Technology is extremely useful in the
classroom. As a teacher you want to provide the best and most useful resources
for your students.
Chapter 11:
Audio technology and visual technology are also important to
use in the classroom. Audio
technology would be perfect for students who are auditory learners. Teachers used to play auto tapes to have
children listen to them. If laptops are used in the classroom headphones can be
provided for children. They were able to listen to stories and listen to
someone repeat words. There are numerous options for visual learners as well.
Televisions are a good use in the classroom for watching educational movies and
projects that have been video taped. A smart board is a new technology that has
recently become very popular in classrooms. Teachers can pull up anything on them, including the Internet.
They are very useful. Overall, technology
is great thing to provide in a classroom.
