I am happy to be a contributor to this blog on Classroom Technology. I am a media specialist at an elementary school. I hope to learn about some of the newest technology developments and share them with our teachers.
I read an article by Wes Rogers called “Students – Technology in the Classroom”. The article discusses how technology can benefit students in the classroom. Technology in the classroom has the potential to reach students of all learning styles. Technology also helps students stay interested and motivated, and prepares them for the future.
According to the “Report on Effectiveness of Technology in Schools 1990-1994, research shows that when using technology in the classroom, “at risk” students showed an improved attitude, improved confidence, and improved writing skills.
The article emphasizes how integrating technology in the classroom helps all students succeed.
