Technology in the Classroom
I come from an extensive background with use in Technology. I am very confident using computers and exploring new technology to bring into the classroom. I am a firm believer that technology can be an important aspect of the class in many different ways. Technology can be used to reach a broad range of learning styles, technology can assess students knowledge in new ways, technology can increase engagement and motivation in students, and most importantly using technology in the classroom will help prepare students for a future where technology use is the norm.
I recently attended a Child Care Conference that inspired me to check out some new technology, I am so excited to try the following new sites/apps out
