The book makes another good point that technology needs to be used in education to help those who are having trouble with the material. There are not enough teachers per child or hours in the day to give every student the help they may need. I have seen this, especially in math, that students struggle and don’t receive any help. There are so many online math games that teachers could show their students and have students use during their study halls or at home to help them with their math or other areas that they may need help in. Technology needs to be used to its fullest capabilities. Instead of having students struggle and never receive the help they need, why not use what technology has to offer us. We already know that students are using technology and seem to prefer technology learning over the traditional classroom learning, so why not incorporate that into and use it to help where teachers may not have time to help.
As a future educator, this chapter really made me realize what I need to do as a teacher to make sure my students are interested in what they are learning and motivated to learn. I think it’s going to be important to incorporate technology into my classroom to keep my students interested and motivate them with new ways of learning. I also need to help my students learn what they are interested in while sticking to the curriculum.
