EDCI 336 A04 Reflection

hat did you learn about teaching innovation and technology in education?

This semester was full of new experiences. EDCI-336 has been a really interesting  course. I had no idea how many different ways there are to incorporate technology in a class. Whether it is a simple youtube video, a presentation, using the smart-board, or a slideshow the possibilities really are endless. 

Our project 50 ways to tell a story really demonstrated how many ways to tell a story there are and this was just scrapping the bare bottom. There is so much more that can be done. Technology is not available in all classrooms but if it is, I believe that it should be used. Students enjoy technology and are growing up surrounded by it, so why not use it in the classroom. 

As future teachers we need to be critical about how we are using it, and when students are using it we need to ensure there safety. There are many positive things that technology can be used for and there are the same amount of negative things that could be done

Technology has come so far in a small amount of time and it continues to evolve.
