    Technology in the Classroom

    If someone was to say the word “future” to most children, they would think flying cars, aluminum clothes, huge mirrored buildings, and talking robots. For generations, people have pictured the future to be some miraculous, world changing experience. With T.V shows like The Jetsons and Futurama putting crazy ideas into American heads about the future, America as a society has played up how the “future” was going to look. Nobody today wears aluminum suits or has flying cars however; we are now in the future – we live in a world full of modern technology. Things like computers, hybrid cars, trips to outer space, and hand held devices that children today seem to be addicted to all make up this world. How did the world become so advanced? The answer is, good schooling, core fundamentals, and care and compassion from the educators. Just because Americans live in a technologically advanced world does not mean that Americas’ education needs to be revised. In an ever changing country, it would be safe to say that within the next fifty years America will see another change in technology such as vehicles and even simple devices like cell phones. Living in such a fast pace world creates the need to understand that when it comes to education, children yesterday, today, and tomorrow, will need to be taught the basics – core fundamentals such as reading, writing, spelling, and mathematics are still necessary. Furthermore, schools should encourage teachers to use technology sparingly and focus on traditional teaching methods for core learning. The main points that need to be addressed are: technology taking away from core learning principles, the cost of technology, and the roles of the teacher.…

    Time after time we hear everywhere comments from grandparents, parents, brothers and sisters saying that ‘things were so much different when we were in school at your age, and now a days kids are just staring at screens and pushing buttons and now family time includes having your phone with you at all times and checking on your ‘tweets’’. After learning more about some of the ways the school system plans on incorporating technology in the classroom, I am starting to sound a little bit like those before me. We discussed briefly in class a little bit about LPS wanting to convert over to paperless in the next few years, this was honestly the first time I’ve heard anything about paperless classrooms. After reading and hearing many other students’ responses to the subject, we can see that there are many pros and cons to having a paperless classroom. Everyone has a different view, some saying that we need to prepare children for the world they’re going to grow up in and how they’re going to need to be technologically savvy, other’s point out the important fact that we as a world need to be more eco-friendly. I still stand by my opinion on the matter, in which I would not want to be a paperless classroom teacher which I originally said in my black board post. Yes, there are many pros to the situation such as: teaching children at an early age how to use technology more efficiently, having access to all homework, textbooks and lectures via the internet and being more eco-friendly. But ultimately I couldn’t imagine staring at a computer screen all day 5 days a week for what could be long periods of time.…

    Although we've come a long way in using IT tools to enhance education, at present we're hampered by our fragmented approach to incorporating them. In almost every institution you can find islands of innovation, but we have yet to integrate the pieces into a seamless enterprise. For example, some institutions excel in online student services by offering a 24/7 operation to students with great customer service, access, convenience, and a fast response time. Yet the same institutions might still rely on a traditional classroom model when it comes to teaching and learning. Such internal variations parallel those existing between institutions; for example, other institutions might be wildly successful in such areas as distributed learning, distance learning, and partnerships with e-learning companies. Administrative systems vary as well. We see some institutions with fully implemented ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) solutions, while others are still processing financial aid by hand.…
