After prac i decided to read what other bloggers were up to. i stumbled across Joannes blog about the three X. i was really inspired by the idea that echnology allows children to grow and succeed. “that they can “grow and succeed” in today’s world – eXploring, eXpressing and eXchanging”. personally i think that these two words are really what sums up what technology is about in todays society. wthout teachers embracing and expanding childrens creativity with technology the truth of the matter is that they will not be able to succeed.if i think about all the jobs that use technology it comes to the conclusion that the only job that doesnt use technology is a street sweeper. therefor what future are we providing for our students. simply a dismil one at that. introducing students to technology allows them to not turn out like some of us who are tecnophobic. it allows them to have endless oppotunities as well as discover themselves. some students may find that their talent is computing and if teachers do not introduce technology how is a student to discover this talent. there for i think that joannes blog was very insighful in providing me with an overall summery of technology- it provides students with the skills and talent to grow and succeed.
