students.teacher.and.technology ^_^"

1. How technology is going to affect how your students are going to be learning.

Teachnology has been part of education field since the beginning.As technology improve in time,so does education, Students have to cope with the changing and keep updating their style of learning.With the current technology such as internet.It enables students to ask or learn anything from their teacher via email.They can even google all the information through internet and webs provided. With the technology as helpful as that,their knowledge now has no boundaries.They may even catch up with the latest info with just a 'click'.how hard is that?=) Learning is no longer as bored as it used to be.interactive learning programmes are all over the net.Teacher may even teach an interactive learning teaching style by using the 'smartboard'.more hands on activity can be done. direct experience is one of the best way of learning.


2. How you as a teacher will be learning.

It has been teachers' responsibility to catch up with the latest info and knowledge.We teachers have to maintain the trust as 'fountain of knowledge'.With all the current technology,knowledge seems to be just at your fingertips.There will be no relevant excuse not to be in line with the moving era.
