 * 1) I guess this class is going to be a big shock because I honestly did not realize how much technology is used throughout the classroom. The video I watched about Lake Elementary School uses technology to its full potential. It showed me different ways that technology can be used in the classroom such as the smart-board, musical keyboards for music, and computers. The one thing that really stood out to me was when Tamika Lowe said how they can clearly see their students progressing throughout the year. I have learned that technology is not just for play. It can completely help students with all different types of learning styles and that is what I love to see.
 * 2) At first, I didn't think technology would really improve the learning of students, but after this video, it gives me hope. Times are changing and technology is going to become a very helpful source for Teachers. Teachers will be able to gather more information quicker and more sufficiently which ultimately benefits the child. I also think technology really captures the students attention because that is a primary form of entertainment now. I honestly am not too sure how I will use technology in my classroom when the time comes. I mean, it all varies on the school and their belief on using technology. But, if I am allowed to use technology, I will use it in my class as much as possible. One thing I will like to take from the video is being able to break the students up in all different stations. By doing this, the students are being able to express themselves and it changes their routine up throughout the day.
