More technology ideas...Matthew (Matt) Key, Georgia


If implemented in the right way, technology can be used as a tool to facilitate both teaching and learning inside and outside of the classroom. Here are some more ideas that can help with implementation of technology.
1) Opens up other’s perspectives 
Technology can help students see the view points of others.  Students sometimes fail to see things outside of their perspective.  Technology broadens their views.
2) Expands Learning
Students are not rooted in the classroom seat any longer.  Learning is now on the go and teachers can send the students out to expand the learning environment while still staying connected. 
3) Students learn at the own pace 
Technology allows students to learn at their own pace.  Students that progress at a faster pace can move deeper into the content while others can take their time in getting a better understanding of the information before moving on.  Teachers can also provide students with other resources to help gain a better understanding of the information at their pace as well.
4) Time Saver 
No longer is time needed to grade assessments.  Technology provides self graded assignments and they help teachers track progress at a quicker rate.  Technology also provides avenues for collaboration and gives students quicker feedback from teachers and peers.
5) Practice, Practice, Practice 
Technology allows students to keep trying to get it correct before they move on to the next item.
6) Share your voice
Technology provides many different opportunities for students to present their learning in any manner they choose.
