In 5 years

I think that in 5 years my students and I will be using a lot more technology. I know in the Bellevue district there are lots of technology used in classrooms but I think that in 5 years other schools will be caught up as well.

For example, the Interactive WhiteBoard or the SmartBoard.
I already see lots of school changing their overheads to DocuCams.
It's still a new thing to me but I think that I would be using PodCast and other aids to help students at home.
Different sites online would be used more often, like the blogs/teacher websites/wiki.
Maybe we'll even have mini lap tops for individual students in class for writing assignments.

I'm sure there are other things out there that has not been publicized yet but what I mentioned above are things that I know for sure will be used in my class (if available).

  1. I totally agree. Technology will be advanced in the classroom within the next five years. It does not matter where you are. And how cool would it be if each student had their own personal laptop to work on within the classroom setting. Each student could do so much. They could research, write, talk with other people around the world... there are so many possibilities. And imagine what new technology will exist then too:)
