Technology in the classroom
1. Technology In The Classroom
As a teacher I’ve seen how
technology in the classroom is a
benefit for my students.
2. • When using technology to facilitate K12 instruction, teachers have to take
into consideration whether students are
learning concepts successfully with the
use of technology rather than with only
traditional instruction.
4. • Technology provides students with
essential resources such as illustrations,
sound, video, 3-D simulations, etc.
5. • Technology can simplify instruction for
students and can be used as
differentiated instruction.
6. • Technology can provide students with
other types of instruction rather than
teacher-led instruction. Technology can
simplify a topic for a student by
explaining it differently.
8. • Unfortunately, most students are not
interested in global news; however,
using technology can make news
interesting for students. The Internet
permits free video conferencing which
permits interaction in real time with
sister schools in other countries.
9. • From an educational viewpoint, what could
be more important than understanding
other cultures through direct dialog and
collaboration?
10. • Planning and integrating technology in a
classroom takes time; but not including
technology in the lesson plans can make
the instruction less interesting or
motivating to the students.
