Article Reflection: Syncing Up with the iKid
I totally agree with the article. Students generate technological information on a daily basis. I think that students are learning different thinking patterns because of the technology we have today. Teachers need to keep up to date with the newest technology in order to keep up and keep their students motivated. Technology will most likely always be changing. Most everything is about technology and everyone uses it. It is a good tool for teaching students as well. The students would probably be more into an assignment if it including using the computer or Smartboard. The more teachers use it, the more it will benefit the learning of students.

Sometimes teachers can learn from their students. My own kids are my technology "go-to" people. You're right, at Wheatley we had Smartboards and the kids loved them!
ReplyDeleteYes, we need to keep up to date, just as with anything. My only concern is technology has that 'wow' factor with the kids. What if they get too used to it or simply become uninterested. I'm not saying it will actually happen, but what if?
