I think that learning with technology is a huge benefit in today's world. Everything is changing from the old fashion text book, to being able to download a text book on a kindle, saving a lot of money. I have never had to teach with technology but, I feel like it would be easier to stick with a chalk board or even white board when teaching children rather than using a smart board.
I believe teaching is a way to help others learn and grow. As teachers, we leave lasting effects on the children we will teach. I know of teachers who have made differences in my life, and teachers who I never want to be like.
I am also from Pittsburgh! and i loveee the Steelers! We also have the same majors! and i too think chalkboards can be easier to use when teaching children, but with smart boards you can do powerpoints and make things more interesting.
ReplyDeleteI definitely agree with you when it comes to young children and technology. It's certainly much easier to teach them using more traditional methods. That's not to say that you couldn't use it all, but I do understand where you are coming from.
