The Advantages of Technology in the Classroom

  In the article I had read, Advantages of Technology in Classrooms, lists about five different advantages of why it is helpful to have technology in the classroom. The following reasons are what the author Eric Schreiner gave:
  1) Made accessing information easier
  2) Allowed us to easily edit our essays
  3) Provided supplementary information
  4) Made communications between two people faster
  5) Motivated students to learn more and have fun

  All of these advantages are great reasons for why every class should have technology in some way. It catches the eye of students much better than books or old projectors. I know that it caught my eye many times. With the new technology like the smart boards  students enjoy watching what the teachers are doing with it, so they learn better. I was able to learn more about computer science when my teacher used the smart board because it didn't make me fall asleep.  Another reason why technology is so great is because it helps the students be more creative with their work and helps them AIM FOR THE STARS.
