Lessons Learned

I learned from the articles where i need to get myself in the future. I am not as computer savy as i should be and so i will need to get on learning about them to become a better teacher and helper. I also really liked how using technology to test is more effective in my mind. For example the CRT tests which are the state mandated tests are easier to take on a computer then pencil and paper. Also instead of always having paper tests just in the classroom i can add technological advances and other things like that to make it more enjoyable. I also really liked how integrating the technology into the curriculum is very useful in keeping the students attention and engaging them in learning.
I really liked the article that was titled Teen Disconnect, i thought it was interesting how some students didn't feel they wrote better when they use a computer then when they just wrote on paper. I don't feel that way i think i do better when i write it on the computer even if it is just by making the spelling and grammatic part of it better. Also because the younger generations use abreviations very much that by having them write on paper they would have to learn to write out what they were saying so i have mixed opinions on it.
