SMART Boards in the Classroom

Although expensive, SMART boards can come in handy in the classroom. They are able to get students more involved because children want to volunteer to come up to the board and give their answer. Many believe that it is more fun to write on a SMART board than it is to write on a chalk board or white board. Studies have shown that SMART boards have a positive impact on both teaching and learning. It evolves how teachers teach their lessons and the students are able to understand what is being taught to them better.

Technology Within the Field of Education

Technology can be a very complicated thing. It is used a lot within the field of education. When I was younger I never realized how much technology my previous teachers used. Everytime they typed up a document for us, created a powerpoint for us to watch, or even when they researched something over the internet to show us, they were using technology. Even as students we used technology. Without technology, the field of Education would be completely different.
