Utilizing Technology in the classrooms



Technology is a necessary part of the 21st century and it penetrates everywhere. It has a wide area of penetration which pushes people to use technology in their social life. It is for sure that technology has to be used in education as well. Then, as prospective teachers, how do we utilize technology to classrooms? There are lots of easy ways to do it. For example, the teachers can use email in a language class to communicate with students from different countries, so that the students can have a chance to meet different people and their cultures. Moreover, the teachers can assign projects that lead students to use software like PowerPoint that develop their computer literacies. Fortunately, we are not in the age that technology crawls, if the teachers are not capable of using trend apps or software, there are different websites that teach how to use those kind of programs and so on. This variety will help us to communicate with our students more easily than the past without thinking the notion of time and place.
