2. Use of Technology in Classroom
• In my classroom, technology will be used often
• It is more organized
• Easy to use, especially for the newer generations starting at a younger
age
• Very interactive
• Not going to be used for reading, more for assignments
• Students tend not to focus when they are reading online
• Easier to use it for showing videos, presentations, or assigning projects

3. Advantages in the Classroom
Enhancing Students’ Learning
• If appropriately used, technology can enhance the learning
process
• Teach critical learning, advance knowledge and entertain
simultaneously
• Technology makes learning more enjoyable and fun
• If students are too shy to answer a question by raising their
hand, they can answer on their screen and the teacher can act
accordingly
• Less assertive students benefit in using technology in the
classroom

4. Advantages in the Classroom
Students with Disabilities
• Blind students can use speech output to refer to text
• Hearing impaired students can participate more electronically
• Student with limited use of hands can use a trackball, voice
input, or alternative keyboard to use computer
• Other students with disabilities may find comfort in the privacy
of using the computer

online applications

5. Advantages in the Classroom
Linking Classroom to Outside World
• Use of social media engages students with other students
around the world
• Can discuss cultural differences and become more worldly
students
• The world is getting smaller because of technology so we need to make
sure our future students are prepared to communicate with people
around the world
• Students can use technology to explore different cultures, meet
new people, learn new languages and share and develop ideas
