Chapter 8 Reflection (AG)

Chapter 8 offers future teachers a framework, and suggestions for using technology and resources to support inquiry learning. Computers now play a major role in education. I do remember when I was in elementary school; computers were rarely seen in the classroom. I actually remember going to computer class, and that is the only place you really saw a computer. Now there are computers found in most classrooms, which are made accessible for the students. As a future teacher I will most likely utilize technology as part of my teaching method. It is interesting to see how technology has evolved in the classroom. In the past I do recall using technology for research purposes only. It is important to manage the internet use in the classroom. It is important that the students are supervised while using the internet. Technology can be beneficial in the classroom, but it is important the teacher has complete control of the use of technology.
