Preface and Chapter 1

This reading reinforced my knowledge on the growth in technology and the "knowledge revolution" we are living in. I understand the importance and benefit of integrating technology into our curriculum and exposing children to it. I agree that it is a tool children can use to continue learning outside of the classroom as well as inside the classroom. Since technology is not a fad and is not coming to an end anytime soon, I do feel it is important for children to learn how to do different things with a computer because they will be using it on a daily basis for the rest of their lives.
As a future teacher I will make it a priority to incorporate the use of different types of technologies in my classroom. Whether it is a technology that I will use, the students will use, or one we will use together, like a smart board, I will make sure to expose and teach my students the importance and benefits of technology.
