 As you prepare to become a Teacher by learning
how to utilize these digital tools, you need to have
the right mindset or a way of thinking how these
tools can be effectively integrated in the lesson. A lot
of Teachers may find it daunting to use a technology

can be overwhelming, but for one who has the
openness to learn and continuously study the
features of the tools can possibly lead to a more
productive way of designing a technology- enhanced

 With the fast paced development of technology,
Educational sites, portals, or applications, change is
inevitable. Working on a particular tools at the
