Philosophy of Using Technology in the Classroom

 

Education back in my day...  

 

Education now and to the future...    

 

The image above may seem far fetched, but with the technological advances made within the past century, if not the last decade, or even five years, science and engineering has made it possible to be not out of the question.

                                        

 

Technology in the classroom provides an enriched educational environment. I believe that educators must be innovative and must evolve with the world outside their classroom door. Textbooks and lectures do not breach the surface barrier of learning. The use of computers, laptops, iPads, Androids, amongst other devices greatly enhances lessons and learning. They are far more entertaining and engaging (which as stated before, emotions tied to learning increases the likelihood of meaning and understanding). Interactive sites and games, online videos and other platforms, supplements teaching and is more impactful in creating deeper comprehension.
