PRO: Why integrate technology into the curriculum: This article
states how technology can be very useful and how it helps
students to know that technology can enhance their learning.
This article shares how interesting technology can be when
learning and having to use such resourceful materials.
CON: Issues and Barriers to integrating technology: This article
states how the school or classroom may lack the hardware.
Some schools or classrooms may not have enough computers for
the amount of students, it may be very slow, limited internet
4. connectivity, it really just depends on an issue. There may be
also some lack of professional development, such as directed
integrating technology into the classroom.
HOW CAN TECHNOLOGY BEST BE USED IN SCHOOLS?
Having ipads given to each student and having an online portal
can be a useful technology source. Each student can access the
same portal as the teacher and the teacher can teach through the
portal. The teacher can have assignments, projects, and test
uploaded on the portal and they can go over it together as a
class. The students can have access in class and at home and
also have homework or study guides uploaded for them.
WHAT FACTORS CONTRIBUTE TO SUCCESSFUL
TECHNOLOGY USE IN SCHOOL?
According to Millar(2013) It is just the value of technology, it
can be lost if the teachers are not so comfortable with the
gadget.
ARE THERE SOME TECHNOLOGIES THAT SHOULD NOT
BE USED IN SCHOOL?
I truly believe that all technologies should be used in school.
Now a days, students use so many different tools of technology
and different types of equipment, such as phones, ipads, tablets,
computers, and laptops. I would say whatever they are
comfortable with, they can use in the classroom as well.
SHOULD WE STOP TRYING TO INTEGRATE
TECHNOLOGY IN SCHOOL?
I would say no, the only reason why is because technology is
just resourceful and it is great for the students. The students
find it very interesting and exciting to use technology today.
According to (Lederer, 2012) it is an exciting way to connect
and interact.
