Overall Reflection
As important as pencil and paper learning is, I believe it is very crucial for students of all ages to have technology integrated into their learning. With this day and age, we are using technology more and more in our daily lives, and it should definitely be a teacher’s duty to help develop skills needed to appropriately use technology to all students. Technology, specifically educational websites in this case, can really reinforce and enhance many lessons. Not every student learns the same way, and I really feel that the use of technology can help more different types and levels of students understand better. I am definitely more aware about adding extensions to my lessons that include technology. My second evidence and annotation helped me learn that although some aspects of classroom life is best with a pencil and sheet of paper, technology can help you come a long way as a teacher. Like I mentioned before, this program has cut my time in half that I spend working on grading and recording data for my class. Technology is very important for your students to learn to use, but it is just as important for teachers to use and implement technology into their daily routines in the classroom as well. My third evidence helped me realize that technology should be an integral part of your weekly, if not daily, teaching. We live in a society where many various types of technology are becoming prevalent to everyday-life. It is my responsibility as a teacher to give my students opportunities to develop their skills working with different types of technology. It is also crucial that the technology is integrated into their curriculum, so they get several chances for enrichment.
