Growing Up Online is a series of videos created about young people and their interaction with the internet.
This small excerpt from the hour long program, aired on Frontline, focuses on technology in the classroom and shows two points of view on how teachers feel about it.
As a student at Frederick Community College, I am very grateful for the teachers who embrace technology and use it actively in their teaching. Yes there is a place for traditional methods, but if your goal is to teach... than why not use tools that merely take a little bit of training to acquire, and help your students to excel in a technology driven world?
"I feel that my time is over" said one of the teachers.
Your time is never over as a teacher! You have more to share now than you did when you first started! Take the challenge and show your students that you too can excel at learning. Never give up.
Great!
