5. When I think of having technology in a classroom I
think of using computers for a paper, or television to
watch a news segment. After looking at this site, I
realized there is so much more you can use with
technology other than that. I have learned that you can
have technology workshops, create fun and attractive
powerpoints to get the kids attention, and articles from
online that the kids can learn their lesson on.
Technology is taking a huge role in the world today and
putting it into classrooms for children is a wise decision.
Technology Tips for Classroom Teachers

6. How to integrate technology:

the internet. It allows the teacher to Concerns

of some problems. So here are the
concerns:
1. Time objective
2. Cost and available equipment

3. Knowledge objective
4. Quality objective
5. Plagiarism objective
6. Cheating objective
7. Parental and community objectives

8. “Six years ago, the internet was limited both in what it
could do and who used it.” I thought this quote was
interesting because it opens my eyes to see how far along we
have gotten with technology. Today we are using technology
all the time and it’s hard to imagine life without it. From this
website I have learned three new things how technology can
be integrated into the classroom. It can be tied in through
creating websites, researching, and online assessment. I think
that creating a website with information from the students
work and research is a great idea. In the world today when
you need to research a topic we automatically think of
researching from the internet. It is important for the students
to be able to find their information not only from books, but
also online. Online assessments are much easier to access
than only other way!

assignments because they skills provided by technology.

looking with the tools and products

students more aware of the
information being presented to them.

11. “Technology is the ultimate carrot for students. It's something
they want to master. Learning to use it enhances their self-
esteem and makes them excited about coming to school.”
When I was reading through the article, this quote stuck out
to me. I like it a lot because I do believe technology is the
“ultimate carrot.” Kids are amazed by technology and they like
to see if they can accomplish many things within it. I think as
they grow older they will still want to learn more about it as
well. This article really shows how technology effects not only
the students, but also teachers. I was really impressed with
the effects technology had on students inside the classroom. I
believe since technology is growing and with this quote that
technology should be a big part in each and every classroom.
Effects of Technology on Classrooms and Students

12. Through during this presentation it has really
opened my eyes of how important technology is for
students. Technology has grown so much in just the
previous years and students should be aware of the new
areas of it. I believe by having technology in classrooms
that it will tremendously help the students with finding
resources, online assessments, powerpoints, increasing
their self esteem, and wanting to accomplish tougher
tasks. All three of these articles tie together because
they all explain the benefits of having technology in
classrooms and also why they should be.
