Technology in the Classroom... by Avery Reeder and Maritza Cosano Gomez
Have you ever stopped to think how technology has changed the modern classroom? Or how the needs of teachers have changed during the past few years? No doubt, due to changes in the world and society, school is now viewed differently, as technology has changed the standards for student achievement, and new approaches to teaching and learning. Depending on the type of school and location, tools used to encourage students to learn in different ways, have been altered through time.
