New Insights and Their Implications

So far I have been introduced to a couple of new insights to this course which will give me the opportunity to practice them my next field experience. One of these insights was being able to see the use of the SmartBoard, which has broadened my technology world immensely. Most of my generation (I think anyways) has not had to much of a variety of technology in their Math classes in high school. I know growing up in my small school, teachers were limited with their technology resources. And sometimes if they used technology it seemed as though it was forced. (like we said in class) I believe that being able to use technology most effectively would help my students better understand the material. So far seeing the SmartBoard's different options has shown me several different ways to incorporate technology in my future classroom. I look forward to being introduced to other resources of technology in this course in order to analyze where they could potentially be used or which piece of technology would be more effective.
