#8 How can technology affect the learning process?

Technology has a great affect on the learning process. It can be an important tool to enhance the process and allow a teacher to reach students in a new way. Since all students do not learn the same way then it is ridiculous to think that we can teach them all the same way. I have some students who cannot stand to learn from the textbook and want to have their hands on the subject. I also have students who need to see it in writing and be able to read it themselves. Technology allows me to reach the students and engage them on multiple levels. The issue then becomes finding the technology that engages them and promotes thinking and learning. They use technology more than any other generation so the best way to teach them is to integrate what they use into our classrooms while introducing them to new things.
