Technology is an integral part of the entire educational process. In fact, it is listed in the Georgia Performance Standards. So some educators struggle to find ways to integrate technology into the classroom. Some veteran teachers are confused about technology and are not familiar enough with it enough to be successful using it in their classrooms. Teachers also have assess whether they are using technology as an aid to the educational process, or are they using technology simpy for the sake of using it. How do teachers incorporate technology into their curriculum? Teachers use websites to provide parents with information regarding upcoming tests or assignments, as well as a way to keep in touch with parents about general school issues or upcoming events. I too, have a class website, you can find it here: . Teachers can also find ways to get their students comfortable with finding reliable online resources. The students, are for the most part, familiar with the internet. It only makes sense that teachers integrate it into assignments. Teachers are finding new ways to make learning fun and interesting for kids, IPODS hold endless possibilities for aiding the educational process, and I suspect that they will become much more commonplace in schools. Technology is constantly changing and teachers will either embrace it or be left behind. It is essential that technology becomes even more involved with classroom objectives.
