I was born shortly before computers and the internet came around. While in my beginning years of teaching, I like to think that I am up-to-date on the latest technology that my students are into. The more I search the web, the more I learn that I have more to learn! Teachers are definately overwhelmed with how to incoporate computers and programs into their lessons. There is so much out there and to pick and choose what to learn and how to make it work for their classrooms can be very exhausting and time consuming. Can we ever keep up?
I agree that we must ask our students for help - and have them share their interests and learn to collaborate their technology into our everyday classroom. Our future, the students, deserve everything we can do for them.
