Harness Your Students' Digital Smarts
This video is very
encouraging to me. It encourages me to be open minded with my students when I
walk into my classroom to teach for the first time. Digital technology is one
of the world’s fastest growing tactics. We learn something new about it every
day. In this generation, kids use digital technology to play video games, do
homework, or research and much more. Students probably know a lot more than we
give them credit for. My class will definitely be opened minded when it comes
to work. In this video, the teacher had students teach the class how to work
the technology with the assignment, and she learned something from them. It
shows that us as teachers go in the classroom to teach but also learn from the
students as well.
With technology like
this in the classroom, students are able to learn from themselves. This is
important because as students get older, they won’t have someone by their side
telling them what or how to do something. This helps them grow independently.
Digital Technology is like the teachers of the world; it teaches and helps
students learn on their own.
Digital technology is fast growing; it helps people in their everyday lives.
If you give a student the topic of “What was 911?", students can use the
internet to research and learn all about it and then share what they have found
to the class, which is teaching the class what they have acknowledged. Digital
technology is very helpful and important to the world and I think it’s important
to bring into classrooms because it helps students learn new things that a
normal teacher wouldn’t be able to do. It will help students get further in
life than they would with a piece of paper, pencil and a teacher telling them
when president Obama became president. Students can do further research into
who that president really was.
