Modern Teaching with Technology inside the Classroom

Modern Teaching with Technology inside the classroom

Students are the most important part to actively learn inside the classroom with the guidance of the teacher. Teachers are more facilitators inside the classroom than lecturing because the 21^st century classroom seems to be more productive in adding in technology to enhance the curriculum.  Using technology can help the advancement of students in their higher order thinking skills and help with their communication skills with their peers. Using technology in the curriculum can collaboratively help students adept with the use of technology and other skills learned would help them in their future workplace. We as teachers can create an atmosphere for students to stay focus and learn their different learning styles with the use of technology incorporated. Majority of all school have access to computers and the use of SMART Boards inside the classroom, which replaces the use of always using paper with pens. Using computers help students handle online research for school assignments and by researching, using technology enhances student’s skills learning how to manage the device they are on. Learning how to use a computer is a major part of learning in the 21^st Century. Using modern teaching with technology inside the classroom helps keep the interest in learning and students are able to memorize the knowledge they have learned.  Some teachers do not like using technology inside the classroom they would prefer to just lecture and have students answer questions from a book but I feel technology plays an important role in the development of our modern day classrooms. When we as Educators improve the learning experiences inside the classroom this process help make students prepare for their college and career experiences, which make their learning experiences exciting to learn.  We have many websites on how to incorporate technology inside every teacher’s curriculum. These tips and tools will help us, as educators understand how to integrate technology into everyday instructions in a creative and in a better-organized way. Incorporating technology into classroom curriculum can help students actively engage and participate with out getting uninterested. Students will give feedback and it helps them connect their classroom experiences with the real world experiences. Technology has to be a routine throughout the learning process, which has to support whatever curriculum being taught. While students are learning with the use of technology this can challenge their critical thinking skills, which opens their eyes for real world situations. As teachers we have to analyze how our students are going to be able to handle themselves once they leave the classroom setting and have to prove themselves in a career setting; we are setting them up to be comfortable with the use of technology. Technology is the way the world is communicating now and we all have to be on board with it. Modern teaching has its benefits for our students to be the best at what they can be.
