The Latest Technology Used in Classrooms Today
Hi future teachers, this week I want to share with you a useful information about many new technologies being used in classrooms today: social networking, online teaching, class blogs and wikis, podcasting, interactive whiteboards, and mobile devices. There are many ways in which we can benefit from the new technologies being developed today. For one, new technologies make distance learning easier. It also allows for faster feedback and improved collaborative efforts between large groups of people. Technologies like podcasting and websites allow students to learn and participate in discussions even when they miss classes due to sickness. Class blogs and wikis widen the avenue for discussion and give students a chance to participate outside of the classroom. Interactive whiteboards makes teaching easier, giving students better visual aids and teachers an easier time in presenting lessons; while mobile devices allow teachers to deliver information to students in a lightning-fast manner. Online teaching and distance learning is a fast growing industry. People today are not confined anymore by geographical or cultural boundaries. People want to learn and people want to give out information. In today's world that is growing ever smaller thanks to technology, classrooms aren't just confined anymore to the four walls of traditional schools. Education thru technology is the way of the future.

The quote of the week: we need to prepare students for their future,not our past.
Hello Sajmira. Nice information from your point of view. I wanted to say that technology is really helpful in teaching and learning but unfortunatly our schools are missing a lot of new technologies. Teachers and students use mostly their smart phones as a useful mean to teach and learn.
