Prompt #5

Prompt#5: Discuss what role you believe technology will play in shaping the classroom of tomorrow, and describe how you will keep your technology knowledge base and skill set up to date as a classroom teacher.

I think technology will play a major role in shaping the classroom of tomorrow. Digital textbooks are starting to become popular already and I feel that in the future schools will move from paper textbooks to online textbooks. I am sure that when I am a teacher I will have to go to different workshops and conferences to keep my skills up to date and to learn how to use the best pract for technology. Right now I am in a classroom that frequently uses a smartboard and it has been a huge learning experience for me because I have never used one before. I am starting to create my lessons for novice on a smartboard and during my teachers plan period I practice giving my lesson while having students interact with the smartboard. I am open to learning different types of technology and programs in my lessons because I think that they will help keep my students engaged.
