The “Did You Know” videos that we watched in class were very interesting. We all use the World Wide Web, but few of us understand the vastness of it. These days, instead of using a dictionary or an encyclopedia to find an answer to a question, people Google it. For me, the videos put into perspective the role that technology plays in our lives.
As an elementary school teacher it is up to me to prepare my students for the technologically based world that they will be living in. Using technology in the education environment is prevalent, if not necessary today. It began in the 1930’s with things like audio clips and slides. Today we have classes that are strictly taught online. Using technology in different ways in the classroom can be very helpful in teaching students different things. With the trend that our world is following, it is necessary that students have a grasp on how to use technology for all kinds of different things.
This video goes through the technologies of past classrooms. It is amazing to see how far we have come. And as time goes on, more technological advances are being made. Nothing in our technology-based world will remain constant.
