Technology?

Technology seems to be the way of the future. It seems to be the only way to teach students in today's world. I believe the use of technology in the classroom is an important asset. I believe students learn better when the use means they are interested. I believe the use of technology could make content more relateable to students. There are many ways to get students more involved in learning. Technology is a great way to get the students involved. They can create and work in groups to help with learning the material.I also believe we can get carried away with technology in the classroom. We do not need to cut so much of our other budgets for technology. Yes, technology can help students learn, but at the expense of art or music. How is that right? I know we can use technology as a tool to help understand the material, but we need to put it into perspective. We need to teach the whole child and use many forms of teaching. Not all students will learn best with technology. Some students need other means.
