Having technology in the classroom is not going to be easy. Especially for me who grew up using chalkboards. I have never been exposed to updated technology until now in college. My student will definitely know more about their devices then I will. The only thing I can do is learn as much as I can. And I won't be afraid to ask for help from my colleagues and students.

I will have to admit, at first it is going to be very difficult for me to let my students use their cell phones or any other device during school, but I have begun to realize that there are several different uses and times are changing for the better. Instead of trying to punish kids for using their resources I need to utilize it for instruction.

  1. Towards the end of the course we'll look at incorporating mobile platforms in schools- some teachers are doing neat things with cell phones in their classrooms.
