Introducing technology is not as simple as it may seem. One can not simply provide technology for their students to use. A teacher must make sure the student knows how to use it as well. The students have to be willing to learn about technology and the use of it for the teacher to effectively teach their students. A teach must be prepared to teach a student as well. Being prepared involves of knowing the functions and how to use the different technology a teacher is using in teaching his or her students. A teacher must know what the most effective way to introduce this technology to the students. Teachers must also come to realize the importance of technology in today's demanding society. The future of students knowledge of technology and other crucial skills are in the hands of teachers'. Many teachers use very little, if any, technology in their classrooms and teaching assignments today. A teacher needs to make sure that he or she appreciates the many different technology based learning programs and the use of them. In knowing these skills a teacher can skillfully and effectively teach these skills to their students.
I believe it is very important for teachers to understand the importance of technology. I also believe that it is important not only for them to acknowledge technology but for them to know how to use it effectively. When a teacher knows how to use technology than they can teach it to their students without having to learn it as they teach it. In the image above the teacher knows how to use a projector. If she did not know how to use it than she would not be able to teach the students in a fun way. The students seem to enjoy the unique screen that most of them, being so young, probably have not seen before. It makes the learning process for the students much more enjoyable and makes learning in general more fun.
