1. Where do you see technology going in the next 5 years?
Within the next 5 years, I see technology in education booming. I see SMART boards in every classroom. I see iPads in every students' hands. I see students becoming even more technologically in tune than they are now. I'm not sure how technology will change over the next 5 years, only because technology is ever changing. I see many new things being invented in the next 5 years, but I couldn't even begin to dream about what those things will be. One thing I'm sure of though, those new inventions will find their way into the classroom.
2. How is education changing due to technology?
Education, I believe, is growing due to technology. I know that classes (K-12) are using Google Docs to collaborate with one another. Classes have Twitter or Edmodo webpages to keep up to date with everything going on in the classroom. Education is changing in ways that I never thought was possible. You can do public school (K-12) online! Whiteboards aren't just whiteboards anymore, they are interactive games and educational tools! There are so many new and creative tools available to teachers and students.
3. How are teachers reaching students in a different way?
Teachers are reaching students in different ways by adhering to the way they learn. You're a visual or hands on learner? SMART boards are great for those. You're an auditory learner? Great! I can make a podcast for you. The possibilities are endless because of the technology that is evolving.
Below, you will find a short podcast about a certain technology topic that I have come to love. The topic I chose was Inspiration, a graphic organizing tool. Have a listen to my podcast, and I hope that Inspiration will peak your interest and make you think more about technology in education.
