10 Reasons to Use Technology in Education


This video is very interesting. It exposes the best 10 reasons to use technology like Ipads, Tablets, Computers, Listening centers... You should watch it and try to see how it could help as a teacher.


1) Students love it
2) It engages the four key components to learning
3) Professional development
4) Makes life easier for Teachers
5) Improves test scores
6) Helps students with low attention spans (duration)
7) Learn from the experts
8) Encourages completion (achievement) of homework
9) Saves money
10) Remove obstacles


I think that the most interesting ideas that I would retain are the first, the second, the sixth, and the tenth because they would be the most useful for the students. But as a teacher, I wouldn't abandon the traditional methods of teaching because they are very useful too. Links have to be made between the two methods, it's my opinion.
