I enjoyed reeading the essay. Yes, change has been slow integrating technology in the classroom. As teachers, we have adapted and now can communicate more efectively with others. Our records are more consistent with other grade level teachers. Yet, we are not progressing like we can be. I believe in regular student reflection. Having available computers for each student would be ideal as they would have the ability to reflect and give feedback to the teacher or other students. I know studetns would take education to the next level, if we could just open the door to technology.
I our school spending tremendous amounts of money into textbooks for newly adopted programs; programs that have faded. Why not invest just a bit more. Computers hold so much more vital opportunities for students and are adaptable. I am a student at Walden Univesity, and I enjoy being able to read linked articles that relate to the program. Our students could really take advantage of similar opportunities!
Money Well Spent
