Chapter 6: Digital Technologies in the Classroom


After reading and analyzing the pros and cons of using technology in the classroom, I would prefer to teach in a classroom that has technology such as computers, iPods, SMARTboards, and other pieces of technology that would be useful to a student’s education. I want my students to be able to have access to the Internet for computers and laptops. With these resources children will be more engaged with the lesson and want to learn. Of course there are cons to technology in the classroom, but to me I feel the pros outweigh the cons. One of the examples from chapter six helps prove that technology is important in the classroom. The example is about electronic whiteboards. This is great for classrooms because they provide hands on activities to get the students excited to learn.
