All of these new technologies that are used today in education have really blown me away. Its amazing to see that we no longer just use book, encyclopedias, and periodicles to learn about the life around us. The technology I like the most has to be the smartboard. Its amazing how something so simple is so difficult to use. It has so many cool features. If I could afford one I would have one in my house just because it is so much fun to use. I would really enjoy being able to learn more about it, because I hope that one day when I have my own class that I am lucky enough to have one in my class. I feel it is a great interactive tool for both teacher and student because it gets them both equally involved in the lesson being taught. It can also capture a students attention when the lesson is really brought to life.

It is very interesting to learn about all of the new technology that is being used today. It is also intimidating. Especially when you are not so aware of the computer. I am afraid of some of these things. I just want this torture to be over with. I am hungry for information but this is giving me too much anxiety.
I agree with you Patricia. It is fantastic what technology is doing for the students and how it has become such an important tool for teachers to use to get to students they might not have been able to reach in the past. I think it makes school more exciting and less boring so more students will be interested in learning and stay attentive in class.
My crystal ball says you will have a Smartboard in your class someday and will be one of the teachers who really take advantage of what this technology (and others) have to offer.
