Lessons Learned

           I found that these articles were very interesting.  I grew up with technology in my home and have seen it progress throughout the years. I knew what it was like not having a cell phone and having dial-up internet.  Technology these days is right there at the tip of your fingers.  Our students today are engrossed in it everyday, and as teachers we need to accept it and learn how to help our students use these tools for their benefit.
          I learned that are several ways to incorporate technology into lessons. As teachers we need to be willing to research new ways and ideas of using technology in our classroom because that is what are students know.  They know how to use technology and I think that if teachers know how to use technology in their classroom they can teach to the students and they will be able to effectively engage all their students. 
         From reading and watching these videos I learned that incorporating the use of technology into classrooms can not only benefit and enhance the learning of our students but it can benefit the future of our students with them knowing how to use different programs and applications and research tools.  If we are going to teach the students about technology it is only going to help them out in their future because techonology is only going to continue to progress.  If these students are learning how to use technology in their everyday lives it will benefit them in their future careers and it could help in developing a better community and economy especially if they are learning to communicate and cooperate well with others.
