Past, Present, and Future

In light of the most recent assignment we have completed, I felt this video was relevant because of its relations to the topic. We looked through a brief history of technology in education and I believe this beautifully made video allowed for us to understand more deeply the amount of development that has gone into technologies, especially in the ways they are associated with education. This cartoon shows us this sort of development in an entertaining way which gives the audience the impression that technology in schools can be useful and provides students with much needed interactivity. The video ends with "How are you going to shape the classroom of tomorrow?" which I believe tells us that everyone has the capabilities to make a difference in schooling as long as they are willing to put in the time and effort, as many have done before us.

  1. Kevin, That was a great video. I loved how simple it was but yet showed an accurate timeline of technology development and usage in the classroom!
    The final question of "How are you going to shape the classroom of tomorrow?" is very thought provoking. From this course, we can see that there are many technologies that are cutting edge and innovative that will improve the learning ability of students. We now have tons of new math software that is incredible interactive and promotes participation from all students so we can monitor progress.
