When students are using technology as a tool or in writing papers or doing projects, they not going to be using the teacher for many things, they are going to turn to the internet and other resources that a computer can help them with. The student is always making choices about how to write and find out different information for things. Technology use allows many more students to be actively thinking about information, making choices, and using different skills than used in typical teacher-led lessons. When technology is used as a tool to support students in completing certain projects or assignments, the students always dependent on computers now a days and don’t pay all that much attentions to teachers anymore.
The teacher's job changes in a rather large way also. The teacher is no longer the main person that all the students get their information from. The role of a teacher changes completely and they are now the second source to go to when a student has a question or comment to make. And now you see as the process when using computers go on, you see the teacher sit in a chair at a computer, and occasionally walk around the room and give suggestions about what the students need to fix and work on.
Technology is starting to show up everywhere now, becoming so important in almost every part of our lives. Yet most schools aren’t far behind when it comes to introducing technology into the classroom. Although most schools are just beginning to bring all this technology in, most schools already have it and say that it has a lot of potential in helping students do better. People think if technology is properly used, it will help students build up and get the skills they need to know about all the information needed when using it.
Cost might be an issue in some schools. If schools got laptops for every individual student use, they must be replaced every two to three years to make sure they keep working and are in the right shape for every student that uses them. And you have to pay all that money to get more. Then a tech staff is required for a school computer class rooms, laptop carts, and projectors. The more computers the school uses, the more people will be needed to keep the technology running. And to keep the tech staff there and running you have to pay them which are going to cost more.
All students learn different ways, and with all the ways they have now with the computers and projectors, and also teachers still teaching the way they use to with chalkboards or whiteboards have different effects . But using all ways helps the best.
