The educational experience of any individual greatly influences how that person faces challenges that arise throughout his or her entire life. The average person spends fifteen years of their life in the educational realm. Why not make this a positive experience?
Every individual has unique needs and characteristics. In order to meet these unique educational needs of the students we first have to meet the needs of our teachers. Too many times technology is passed through to the teachers without proper input, training, and feedback from the educators who will use it the most, the teachers and the students. If we as educators can create lessons with the integration of technology based off the needs and input from our students and our teachers then I believe we will develop lifelong learners. Once the student has this much interest in learning the teacher will become the facilitator and we will all learn from each other.
The use of technology in education will continue to increase over time. In order to prepare our students and connect them to the world we have to do a better job of becoming informaters of technology. If we as educators are able to make this a positive experience we create lifelong learners, develop children into decision making adults, and prepare our students to enter a world full of technology.
