Technology Integration

There are many ways that technology integration can help create a strong learning based classroom. The first advantage of technology in the classroom is greater hands on learning. By learning how to use the Smart Board it has really given me another opportunity and helps show students another way to learn. By using a Smart Board you can have the students interact with other students by certain programs such as Inspiration and Kidspiration. These programs further show the hands on approach that can be used in the classroom. Another advantage to technology in the classroom is using Powerpoint. Powerpoint is a program that students can use on the computer that organizes video, sound, and pictures into one easy to access location. Powerpoint can also be used on the Smart Board, which makes it another great hands on program. A technology integrated classroom encourages students to be more hands on, procrastinate less, and give more effort to complete things. One more example of technology integration in the classroom is video pod casting. By using this program you will learn how editing will help you create a video in the classroom. All these examples of technology integration help better the students in the classroom and will help me become a better teacher later in life.
