Current View of Technology
My current view of technology has not changed very much since the beginning of class. I still think technology is a great tool to use in the classroom. I think technology is a good thing to use in an elementary classroom. The focus of the classroom should not be on strictly technology. I have learned some great ways to use excel in lessons. I also discovered and learned about different programs that are kid friendly such as Kid Pix, Kidspiration, The Graph Club and much more. I have definitely discovered more educational websites I could use in the classroom. After taking this class, I have discovered and realized even more ways to use technology in the classroom! I still believe children should use technology to get use to it and to start to develop their skills for future classes and their careers. I have realized even more that I have no idea what my school or classroom will pertaining to technology.

Robyn,
I agree that technology should not be the only focus of the classroom, however, it can be embedded into almost any lesson. KidPix was my favorite program that we learned about in class. I really like how it can be used for almost anything that is being taught. Using technology in the classroom is a great way to make life easier for the teacher, and also to help the students learn more effectively.
